The concert that I reviewed is the Guitar Studio Recital featuring The Oakland University Saxo-Ensemble. I love listening to guitars so I figured that this was the perfect concert for me.

Halloween‚ being one of my favorite holidays‚ this was a nice surprise. I am glad that I attended this concert because it the pieces were not too

This year at PXHS there was a great musical called the Music Man. The musical was truly serious and hilarious.

going to a concert‚ I liked this webcast because the different camera angles provided footage of everyone playing their instrument and if I had been in a seat I would have been stuck looking at the same few people the whole performance.. For example‚ the conductor would usually have his back to the audience throughout the performance‚ but since I was not a part of the conventional listeners‚ his facial expressions were exciting to watch. Leonard Slatkin‚ the conductor was very into the music‚ sometimes
