“Virtual Concert Report”
For your Virtual Concert Report, you will choose one performance to watch and review from a selection of videos provided for you in the top folder of this Assignments area. All of these performances come from a virtual concert series called “Tiny Desk Concerts” hosted by NPR (National Public Radio).
For the assignment, answer the following questions after watching the video concert (you may have to watch the concert multiple times).
1. Who are the performers? What is the band or ensemble’s name?
Do a little internet research and find out where the group is from, the type(s) of music they perform, and a little information about the group in general.
There is band information in the details below the YouTube video. Expand the details to read about the group or artist.
2. What happened in the performance?
What instruments were played? Was there singing? (Remember, the information below the video lists the instruments).
How did the instruments and/or vocalists sound?
How many different songs were performed? How were they different?
Are these songs original or composed by another musician? (The classical performances will be of pieces from various composers, some we have studied in our class).
Do you recognize any rhythmic features of the music? Find the “meter” of at least one song in the performance. Identify the song and describe its meter and rhythm.
This is likely a presentational performance, but were there any elements that made it partly participatory? How was it presentational? How was it participatory? (Refer to Turino’s characteristics of participatory/presentational performance).
3. Reflection: Why did you choose this performance to write your report?
What was interesting about this performance to you?
Did this performance create a particular mood or feeling for you?
What was surprising about this performance for you?
