Music Performance Report

Music Performance Report

Q Turn in your music performance report here. Make sure your name is also in the beginning of the text. You are responsible for attending an event where music is performed in a genre related to what we are studying. Because of the way music is performed in some of the cultures we are studying, the event does not need to be a concert. For example mariachis performing at a wedding or drummers, singers and dancers at a Powwow are acceptable subjects for a report. Your report should examine not only the music itself but also the cultural environment from which it comes. It should include critical thought and analysis about the music and the cultural environment in which it is performed. In addition, you should have observations about the audience and performers. Finally, this report should demonstrate some research about the genre of music performed, should include citations and be at least 300 words in length.

Few months back I attended a wedding which was planned in a different because it was a themed wedding. The couple wanted something different from the usual wedding and as a result, the wedding planner made all the arrangements based on the Folk theme. The decorations, food and the wedding dress all very designed and planned keeping various aspects of folk culture in mind. It was there that I got to hear music that was influenced by the Appalachian music. It was not only interesting but was equally enlightening as I could relate to the various aspects of folk music which I have studied here.
