Due to the current Covid-19 outbreak, it may be difficult to attend live concerts; therefore these concerts can be “virtual concerts,” or videos such as those found on YouTube. The concert that you watch is your choice. There are many great concerts out there, including NPR Tiny Desk Concerts that feature many well-known groups of different genres and have an intimate atmosphere. https://www.npr.org/series/tiny-desk-concerts/Links to an external site.
For each event, a 300-word (12 pt. font, double spaced; around one to two pages) review may be written in terms of the following criteria: the style or genre of the music; the setting, programming and pace of the event; the relationship among the performers on stage; the relationship between the performer(s) and the audience; and your reaction to the event presented. Each critique will be graded on grammar, style, and thought.
