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.

Concert Report The Wayne Shorter Quarter concert was unlike any concert I have ever been to. The variety of instruments and style of the performers contributed to a unique experience.

These factors allowed me to obtain a better understanding of jazz as not only an art form‚ but as a culture. The audience

The concert I am reviewing is named “Bailando” and was put on by our MPDC is the spring of 2015 (my 8th grade year). I choose to critique this specific concert because I could not get to/afford professional shows and I have never seen one of our concerts from start to finish. Dance is my passion and I would like to see what it takes to reach each level. The first performance of the show was entitled “One Dance” and performed by both Junior and Senior Company‚ which was something I have not seen before

Descriptive Portrait: My Grandmother When I picture my grandmother‚ I envision shiny grey hair‚ bright blue eyes‚ and the softest hands I have every felt. She is 94 years old and has 12 children.

After so many years‚ our time together was not quite the same as it used to be since ten

Music played an essential role in Italy during the Renaissance period‚ just as it does in current times. Major changes were made in composing‚ disseminating music‚ new musical genres‚ and the development of instruments. Church music was the most important music for those in the Renaissance.
