Coscino Professor Tyler MUH100 23 March 2016 Montreal Symphony Orchestra Post-Performance Report Yesterday, the 23rd of March, I attended the Montreal Symphony Orchestra’s Performance of Claude Debussy’s Jeux (1912), Sergei Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto, No. 3 in C Major, Opus 26 (1921), and Igor Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring (1913) (Zaption). I had a wonderful time, as the Orchestra was masterful in their performances, starting with Jeux. The Symphony Towers was a wonderful venue, very upscale and

It’s hard to say-officially how I can reflect on the true performance. (due to the fact that this is due before the preformance) in general i would wish i would have done better. I wasted a lot of class time and if i hadn’t i might not have been so stressed about this project. Now i do not believe my singular performance will be affected this is because i spent a lot of time to ensure that the full eight minutes met my expectations of myself

audience’s focus and guides them to right where she wants them; we, the audience, feel furious for Millie when she thought Jimmy was cheating on her or feel joyful at the end when Millie finally found her true love. I also think Kyle McClellan’s performance as Jimmy Smith was splendid. His very natural, comical interactions with Tessa Grady had resulted in the theatre being filled with laughter from the audience. His display of Jimmy’s emotions seemed sincere. I also found it very interesting how all

The show “Arsenic and Old Lace” by Joseph Kesselring was an interesting show that it not like anything else I have had the privilege to see before. It was filled with comedy but is also an intense show to watch keeping the audience on the edge of its seat. The length of the is not something that I am used to. I though it was a long show, but it kept my attention throughout the whole three hours. This show seemed to run a little longer than I would have liked it to have. I did not feel like it was

A theater company called the “Torn Out Theater Troupe”, performed two outdoor shows ( 1st central park, 2nd prospect park) of Shakespeare’s “The Tempest”. The show included an all-woman cast who were all performing nude. The Troupe believes that the human body tells a story and that story has full capability to tell their story, apart from just sex. The issue with the Troupe’s rendition of “The Tempest” wasn’t necessarily the nudity; the issue with the show was the fact that it was an outdoor show

Vivid lights cascade over the space gray marley flooring on the stage. Rhythms of song echo throughout the ears of the audience. Although these features capture their senses in the black box and fill them with bliss, they are merely only features of the presence of the dancers. These acrobats and enchanters manipulate the eye of the viewer with the art of movement. Their abstract mobility constantly puzzles and excites the mind. On the evening of October 25, 2017, I had the honor of attending the

The group that I have chosen to identify with is the F&M Dance Company. The company is comprised of over fifty dancers and is supervised by three authoritative professors. Each fall, new choreographers are recruited by the company to teach their choreographies, or reconstruction works of other choreographers, for the Fall Dance Concert. Each spring, the students have the opportunity to choreograph a piece for the Spring Dance Concert. These student choreographed pieces are then either presented in

Event’s Reflection The first event that I attended that was relevant to this class was the play that the school put on called Abraham Lincoln’s Big Gay Dance Party. This was a play that explored sexuality and growing up in a small town. This play relates to the class it that it brings up the idea of sexuality and becoming comfortable with your own identity. At first I was kind of uncomfortable with the play, not because of the content but because of the very eccentric acting that was slightly overdone

“5,6,7,8!” These numbers were introduced to me at the ripe age of three years old and will always remind me of my dancing days and the lifestyle it has brought with it. The confidence from stage, the glitz and glam, and being able to dance next to some of my best friends has undoubtedly impacted me so positively that I couldn’t imagine being any other way. However, there is another side to the dance industry that is quite unnerving, and this is what I will be concentrating on in this Personal Interest
