Write a report on a recording of a musical work or a movement of a musical work.
The first ILR is a report on a physical recording (CD, DVD, VHS) of a musical work. The work must be "art music" as defined in class and in the text The Enjoyment of Music. The work may not be chosen from those included in your textbook's Listening Guides. Suggested works come from the following.
Symphonies, operas, chamber music, concert band music, solo vocal or instrumental works.
To find works of this nature, look in the "classical" section of the CD collection in your local library. DVD's and VHS's are usually shelved according to "opera", "chamber music", etc. The librarian or the catalog on computer will be able to assist you in finding Dewey Decimal numbers for works of art music. As a starting point, music is cataloged in the 780's.
As you listen to your chosen work, take notes. Plan to listen to it at least twice. This will give you a clearer picture of the organization of the work, compositional elements used by the composer, and a fair idea of the work's overall impact. To be"fair" to the work, never evaluate it on the basis of one hearing.
