Music Festival
“ When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and to the latest ” said Henry David Thoreau. Music was and still is a significant factor in almost every culture in the world. It is a form of art that can life the soul, or even heals a patient through music therapy. A music festival is a festival oriented towards music that is sometimes presented with a theme such as musical genre, nationality or locality of musicians, or holiday. They are commonly held outdoors, and often include other attractions such as food and merchandise vending machines, performance art, and social activities, and even theme park rides such as the festival held annually in Abu Dhabi “Cream Fields”. Which is similar to the festival that I am going to be designing in this paper.
The music festival I will conduct is going to be a rather modern based outdoor event, featuring DJs and live acts. The festival would have cartoon based theme, in which attendants would have to come dressed as cartoon characters of their choice, but no regular clothing would be allowed in, it’s either you come in costume or you get out. The idea is for the festival to be its own world for the weekend, and this would be achieved not only through the outfits, but even the stages would have cartoon decorations all around, making everything look colorful and cheerful. For each stage available, there will be a different cartoon theme for that stage, for instance the main stage would have the most famous of all, Tom and Jerry, and so on and so forth.
The festival comers would feel as if they entered a world of childhood, making them forget about all the troubles in the world, and simply enjoy their time as much as they could. They can enjoy refreshments and food, along with special live acts where mimics of famous cartoons will be performed in between one artist and another. Unfortunately for the adolescents, there will be an entry age of 21 and above, all under

    In this next section S.W.O.T analysis will be used to analyze the festivals strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats which will provide the framework that the recommendations will be based upon. The festival has many strengths that have enabled its continued success since its infancy. The location for the festival alone is a great strength as it takes place within the popular Gros Morne National Park which provides a setting of amazing natural landscapes, and spectacular scenery for the event. It is apparent that the festivals majority of customers are locals from nearby communities, which is great as it shows the festival has the support of the nearby communities, and does not rely on visitors from afar or out of the providence. The strong focus on community can also be seen within the festival as there are various local artists, musicians, and writers showcased along with the numerous local programs and collaborations with local arts groups, including the: Theatre Newfoundland and Labrador, Gross Morne Summer Music Program, and school outreach programs.…

    People from different cities, and states come down just for this event. There are six stages, dozens of rides, and a full gallery’s worth of art, cool off zones, vendors, food and beverages. We were surrounded by the smell of popcorn and cotton candy. It felt like the carnival you liked to go to as a kid. Everywhere we went there were people dressed like rainbows. Everybody was dressed in so many colors, and dressed like clowns, with different costumes. The…

    If someone wants to get a point across to a wide audience they must appeal to people’s emotions, logic, or show them that they are credible. In the book The Other Wes Moore the author tries to show his readers that any decision made could change a life in a positive or negative way. Throughout his book, Wes Moore compares the lives of two boys with the same name, growing up at the same time, both in bad neighborhoods. He examines these young men and tries to show when and why their lives changed for better and worse. People cannot choose their living conditions or who their parents are, but Wes Moore shows how the decisions made today can change a person’s future for better or worse. For his audience, use of pathos is the best way for the author Wes Moore to inspire his readers to listen to his purpose of this story and make a change in their lives. To further support his book the author appeals to the audience’s ethos and logos but they are minor in comparison to his appeal to pathos.…

    I attended concert Welcome Christmas 2014 performed by the Vocal Essence and The Ensemble singers on Friday December 5th from 7.30 to 9: 30 pm at the Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church, Apple Valley. The concert was conducted by Phillip Brunelle, narrated by Katherrine Fennard and fiddled by Sara Pajounen. Recording devices and cameras were prohibited it could have been a nice opportunity to record and listen again. I arrived just on time and the singers all dressed in black suites for men and black dresses for women processed silently as they took their spots on the stage according to the parts they were practicing for while the audience cheered for them as they took their spots on stage. As the choristers arrived the hall the musical prelude was going on with different instruments such as the flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon, horn, trumpet, fiddle, violin, viola, cello, bass and percussion but the musicians stopped playing and cheered them as well. Everyone cheered them and then sat down and the deal began.…

    My parents would take my sister and me to the fair each spring. One of first memories of the fair is being carried around of my father’s shoulders and wondering why everyone was dressed so funny. The last Medieval Fair that I attended with my family was my senior year in high school. I wasn’t too thrilled to visit the same old fair again but went anyways because I was told we would go to Red Robin afterwards. It was not until I had to write a paper on a visit to a culture event, did I really start to pay attention to all the unique characters, history, live performances, and demonstrations of medieval art that the fair had to…

    For my event I attended the Black Swamp Arts Festival back in September. This festival was over a whole weekend and it was filled with eclectic styles of art and music. Walking through the festival and seeing the different booths made me feel like I was in a whole new world sometimes. The art was gorgeous, some of it was funny and amusing, and others were moving and were very deep. The musical portion of the weekend is where I found my most memorable events that I believe related to this class in particular. I saw two very different musical performances, one was the modern jazz pair called GINKGOA, and the second was the female mariachi band called MARIACHI FLOR DE TOLOACHE. Both were culturally diverse performances both within the group and…

    In a society dominated by commercialism and Social Darwinism, the desire by many to escape these ideologies is achieved through many different routes. However, the rise in music festival attendance suggests that music festivals are the most effective withdrawal. With the creation of Lollapalooza, Coachella, Sasquatch, Pitchfork, Bonnaroo, Wakarusa, South by Southwest, and thousands of local festivals, yearly music festivals are becoming bigger and more popular. These festivals promote a collective subculture that encourages free expression in art, music, drugs, clothing, dance, and in every daily activity; an almost dream-like environment is created where anything seems possible. People dress up as anything from mushrooms to gypsies, paint themselves with random lines and colors, or wear as little or as much clothes as possible. This random “uniform” adorned by music…

    On March 4, 2012, the DuPage Community Concert Band performed American Titled Songs at the College of DuPage. They performed a total of seven songs. I really enjoyed this concert. It featured many instruments like the trumpet, tuba and trombone. It was different from the concert I attended for my first concert report because it did not feature any stringed instruments. Something I found very different and unusual was the lack of audience involvement in the performance. It was odd for me to have to hold back my applause until the end of the performances. This concert featured many upbeat and patriotic songs. I enjoyed it because of this reason.…

    My view of the fair when I was little was one filled with wonderment and awe. The screams fading in and out as people shot up in the air on rickety fair rides and the greasy sweet smell that filled the air and made your skin feel slimy overwhelmed me with excitements, which often lead to me annoying my parents. I would run around there legs like a puppy tripping them, pointing at all the rides and other worldly stuff I saw. My parents though, as smart as they are, would tell me to behave or I wouldn’t be allowed to do the things I wanted, which in turn would make me behaved like a well-trained mature show dog.…

Receiving mail, that isn't about paying bills or the latest deals on a gym membership is almost rare. Seeing my name on the very thin package completely caused me to rip the package open, though I already knew what was inside I am so eager to see. As I took the tickets from the light, ripped open envelope, they felt so delicate in my hands, if I had lost these prior to my concert, I wasn't going.…
