    four SHS choirs showed the town of Sartell what they’re made of in the form of a Fall Concert. To start off the night, each of the choirs sang around three songs, which were performed beautifully. Then, the 9th grade Concert Band played two spectacular songs. The final group of the night, and the star of this review, was the SHS Wind Ensemble. They performed two pieces alone and one combined piece with the Concert Band and all of the choirs singing behind them. “Imaginarium” was the first piece played

    We had just performed on front of a crowd of about 80 people. Upstairs, listening to the jazz music from other schools we were very tired, it has been a long Friday and it was 10:00 in the afternoon. We were dancing to the jazz music alone, smiling, and the only thing coming out of our mouth was laughter, and the imitation of the vibrant sounds coming from the shining trumpets on the stage below us. The Jazz Festival in Oak Harbor was amazing, even though I didn’t hang out with a lot of people,

    When you see a band live, you arrive with a certain level of expectation. Live music is about atmosphere, energy and a certain sense of intimacy that comes with seeing a band or artist recreate their art for you on stage. If your expectations are met, you leave not only happy, but with a deeper connection with the band thereafter. I had Crooks at a disadvantage before this show as my expectations had been simmering ever since their debut EP Nevermore captivated me back in 2012. Despite this internal

    in the middle of the stage, where two butterfly positioned grand pianos. There was a universal anticipating mood for the music that is to be performed prior to the commencement of the concert. The duo took us through the timeline of their careers, playing pieces from significant times in their profession. The concert started off at a quick and stimulating pace with Brahms’s Sonata for Two Pianos in F Minor. The piece starts with descending arpeggios echoing a sensation of distress or confusion. There

    The second concert I attended was the Shepherd school of music collegium concert at Rice University. The program featured music from the renaissance and was a little bit different then the orchestra concert I attended. For one there were fewer musicians. It had a more intimate setting, not a big theater but rather a small rehearsal hall. The musicians exchanged in and out after there part of the performance was over and there was some singing as well. The beginning of the concert started off with

    When I first walked into the Cole Concert Hall I felt it was smaller than what I pictured. When I sat down I noticed how tall the ceiling was and I was quite impressed. Now on the stage it had this really tall white wall with curves in it. I thought they were just for design till someone opened the wall and started moving the piano onto the stage. The audience was a very small and most of them were dressed up properly for the event. The piece I enjoyed the most was Sequenza V. It was composed in
