Mus1104 Concert Review A Night of Jazz with the University Jazz Bands The concert I chose to attend was the University Jazz Bands’ Student Ensemble Concert on Wednesday‚ March 6‚ 2013. The concert featured two ensembles‚ both the Virginia Tech Jazz Ensemble and the Jazz Lab Band. At this concert‚ I was both a perceptive listener due to my knowledge of music and music performance‚ and a casual listener enjoying my friends performing a great concert. I enjoy my nature of listening because I can

Jazz concerts feature some of the most talented artists of the trade‚ banded together in harmony to create one musical piece. Most concerts feature a combination of singing and instrumentals to make long‚ flowing pieces of music. I had the treat to watch a Jazz concert streamed live online from Quinnipac University in Hamden‚ CT‚ and I definitely wasn’t disappointed. Many jazz concerts feature a wide range of instruments which complement and highlight each other. This band was no different. It

Butts Jazz Concert Report The concert I decided to go to was held in Valley Brewing Company. The event was called “Take 5‚ Jazz at the Brew”. I went to the show July 11‚ 2013. The group I saw didn’t have a name. It was just a group of people performing together. The concert hall was a very nice venue. It was on an extended closed off area past the common area at the bar. The area was very dim lit and was decorated very fancy and elaborate. The music that was played that night was Jazz. The group

and sounds of the Etowah Jazz Society. The concert was from 9pm to 12 am in the morning. There look is like a big band but they have a swing feel to them. The bands whole persona is that of a big band that you would see on a dance television show back in the older days. There sound was very mellow and not loud at all. After Monique talked to a couple of the members in the band I found out that there influences on music where commonly set around the swing era‚ big band jazz‚ and Natalie Cole. The band

full of Jazz. The first group‚ the Jazz Ensembles‚ was led by Greg Wheeler. The first piece was “Lost Mind” the stand out of this piece was the Alto Saxophonist‚ Kyle Merrill. He stood out and grabbed my attention more so than the other soloist during this piece. His solo had a rich sound‚ along with a smooth and swingy rhythm. The piece over all had a rhythm that was easy to tap your foot to and I was doing so throughout the piece. It was a bright sounding piece and it started the concert off on

at the Guzman hall I was filled with anxiety as well as excitement as to what was to come. Prior to this semester I had not listened to any jazz music and I was unaware of any artists or songs. Therefore going to a jazz concert was a rare experience that I now cherish. When I first entered the hall I was greeted by a group of musicians called ‘The Stamps Jazz Quintet’‚ there were 4 musicians at the front of the hall and they were taking place. The musicians included Sam Hart who played the saxophone

December 10‚ 2013 Concert Attendance Report #3 On Friday‚ December 6th‚ I attended the Sac State Vocal Jazz Ensembles. The show began with special guests Christian Brothers Vocal Jazz. This young group of singers were extremely talented for their age. They held their harmonies and expressed their talents in each piece they performed. It was quite impressive and heartwarming because these students looked so into the music that it showed the passion they have for singing and vocal jazz. Following these

For this Jazz concert report‚ I chose to attend the opening night of the 2013 Brubeck Festival on Monday‚ March 18th from 7-9:30pm in Stockton‚ at Valley Brew’s Take 5. I had never been to Valley Brew before and was pleasantly surprised of the warm and casual ambiance. The building had a Chicago-type feel with brick walls‚ and exposed ducts and pipes; super laid back. The south end of the building away from the restaurant and main bar is where the Jazz concert was held. This room was a swanky

I attended a jazz concert at a theater. The audience was extremely respectful and encouraging towards the musicians. They clapped after every performance and particularly after every single solo. I did not notice this until the director thanked the audience for that. I thought that was such a sweet gesture. The atmosphere was great. Even though this was a university concert‚ it was as if I was attending a formal one. The first piece‚ Hard Sock Dance by Quincy Jones and Earnest Bailey reflected the
