Lipstick By Jacob Ter Veldhuis
On Friday April 21, I went to a concert at GGC. There were four different pieces being played that night by three good composers. Two of the pieces stood out to me that night. One by Dr. Katherine Emeneth who played the flute. The piece was called lipstick by Jacob Ter Veldhuis it was not my favorite song that night but it was interesting. The other piece was played by Dr. Emeneth, Dr.lguchi who played the piano and Dr. Kilroe-Smith who played the horn. The piece was called “Ballade, Pastorale and Dance.” Everything about that song was beautiful and was my favorite song that night. The first that was played that night was “Lipstick” by Jacob Ter Veldhuis. The song uses snippets form the show Jerry Springer and specifically puts the voices

    The concert that I chose to attend was the Gramophone award winners, Pavel Haas Quartet. Veronika Jaruskova, Marek Zxiebel, Pavel Nikl, and Peter Jarusek were the musicians. They were all very talented. Their movements were amazing and no matter the difficulty, they stayed in time with one another. The songs they chose to perform were Quartet No. 1 in B minor, Op. 50 by the composer Prokofiev, Quartet No. 11 in F minor, Op. 95 “Serioso” by Beethoven, and Quartet No. 5, Sz. 102 by Bartok. All these pieces were amazing both in difficulty and sound.…

    The saxophone, violin, bass, flute, and piano all played together; however, the bass was clearly the most dominant instrument. The rhythm was a bit dissonance or staccato and consisted of a great deal of syncopation. There were also many sequences with repeated melodies. The flute played many arpeggios and trills.The next song played was one that almost everyone in the room can relate to and was titled “When the Hidden Becomes Known”. It sounded doubtful or nervous for the future. At the very beginning, there is a recitative and it sounds like the vocalist is almost talking to the audience. This piece is played at a moderate tempo and sounds very legato. There was no improvisation coming from the vocalist and she sang with a very consonance melody which one could clearly hear it move in…

    For my humanities report, I attended the Wind Ensemble concert at the Timko Barton lobby on October 8, 2015. The concert was so inspiring and refreshing for me since I love music and am currently studying music. Sitting with some many people and listening to beautiful music from a variety of genres was so restoring to the soul. Dr. John Jenkins, the director, was so motivating in every piece of music and of the program. The concert program ran smoothly as the ensemble band transitioned gradually to each different song piece. In addition the scenery added to the peaceful presence during the show. Since the concert took place in the lobby of the music hall, people saw the bright lights coming from the ceiling and they also enjoyed to majestic surrounding of the large glass windows. The Wind Ensemble concert event was a smoothing time to reflect on…

    The band’s name was ‘Coltrane Revisited’, the people on instruments were Joe Lavano on saxophone, Steve Kuhn on piano, Dennis Irwin on bass, and Idris Muhammad on the drums. All of the members of the band seemed very into their music, they were attentive to the other band members as well. The singer blew the crowd away with her emotion. There were a lot of young people to my surprise, at the concert as well as elderly people. They both got up and started to dance while she was singing.…

    Butterfly Dances was probably my favorite from that entire night. It is a set of variations from traditional Chinese folk songs which Root had expanded into viable melodies. It sounded to be in ABA form, but also seemed to be in symphonic form. It was very beautiful. You could hear the fluttering of butterfly wings from the wind section of the band. The last movement was more dark than the rest. It had a forte and mezzo forte dynamic, as well as there was some ritardando and crescendo in the piece. The tempo changed between vivace, allegro and andante. I really enjoyed it. Thomas Root really got way into conducting. He was jumping and flailing his arms all over, which was rather entertaining.…

    The first song of the evening was ‘Tear and Alnmena’. All the audience was captivated when it began. The opening of this music was like another mood’s music more than Jazz as any other country’s traditional music. Totally, the mood of this music was dark and mysterious. The sound of the bass clarinet which I saw first was freshly, and trombone’s main solo playing was also new feature in this concert.…

    The last extra piece featured was Trio where three artists were featured. In this piece the meter stays as compound but the tempo accelerates and becomes allegro. The instruments featured in this piece were oboe and flutes. It was one of the best pieces of the concert. I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the concert.…

    They played about 5 different songs but I could only catch four of them. The first song they played was called “You Don’t Know What Love is”. They didn’t mention who made the song. The song had a rough texture. All the instruments were playing very loud and wildly throughout the song. There wasn’t much form to this song. The saxophone was playing its own tune while the piano, cello, and drums had some type of repetition. There wasn’t a melody. I felt like they were playing off each other’s energy. There was some rhythm to this song but majority of the time it sounded like it was all freestyle. I think its just because jazz is played like that. The dynamics to this song was very soft and low key aside from the saxophone. The tempo was slow at first then it really picked up 30 seconds into the song. Overall…

    First on the program was Grand Quartet in E Minor by Friedrich Kuhlau (1786-1832). Kuhlau was a concert pianist and a composer of the Danish opera; he composed over 200 works in his lifetime. The first work the ensemble preformed was Andante Maestoso, the intro to the song was very soft, and it had a sense of a nature vibe to the melody. The pitch then proceeded to escaladed higher; at points during the work it was changing from all four flutes playing in unison to just one stand out flute and the rest in a base beat. I really enjoyed the change of pace throughout the song and how one flute stood out showed off that person’s unique set of skills that maybe differs them from the rest of the ensemble. The work ended in a very fast paced rhythm and there was no insinuation that the work was going to end because there was no build up to the finale of the work. I really enjoyed this piece but the only down fall was it was very long and none of the other songs in the ensemble were nearly that long.…

    On February 24th, I attended the West Michigan Concert Winds “Winner and Winds” concert. West Michigan Concert Winds is a volunteer group that performs instrumental music to the community.

There was also a scholarship acceptance performance by a local high school junior who was amazing at the clarinet.…

    The performance started out with the musicians entering the room one by one as they played and opening song, and settling down in their positions. I really enjoyed the movement and the energy they brought with them into the room because it seemed to wake most of the audience up, as some had been waiting for a while. One of my favorite sounds to hear within the music was that of the tuba, which provided the bassline heartbeat. It…
