At the bottom of this assignment you will find a list of suggested concerts.

You will need to have paper and pen to take notes. Some students find it helpful to make a chart beforehand of the musical elements and write comments in each category about each piece on the program throughout the concert. Have fun!

Write the equivalent of a 2-3 page report giving a review of the concert you attended. Your review must include the following:
What kind of listener were you at the concert? Why?
What pieces were performed?
What was the style of each of the pieces performed?
What was the instrumentation of the ensemble?
Draw out and upload the seating arrangement of the instruments in the ensemble.

Unity and Variety
Structure of the Music
