What style period was the music written in? What was the tempo, dynamics, texture, etc.? Sometimes the music in a concert will be only one genre and some have several genre performed. Attach to the program to the critique, and then refer to the titles in the program. For ex. “Autumn Leaves” was performed by a small instrumental ensemble(guitar, bass, and percussion). It is standard contemporary tune. The tempo was a moderately slow ballad. It had a very mellow sound4. Tell how well you think the performers interpreted the music that was on the concert. Were the singers in tune? Did the piano player musically and rhythmically? Do you think the performers communicated the music as it was meant to be communicated by the composer?5. Tell which pieces or part of the concert was most moving or enjoyable to you. If you didn’t enjoy the concert very much, tell why you didn’t enjoy it. What could have been done better? Be as specific as you can when expressing your opinion of the performance-don’t just write generalities like “It was nice” or “it made me feel like dancing.” Tell why the music made you feel like dancing.
