Concert Report 1 On 4th December, 2010, a concert named Philharmonic Orchestra is being held in DVC Performing Arts Center. The program of this performance is remarkable and filled with uniqueness and superb quality of music and sound which make me feel wonderful and worthy to participate as their audience. The program is divided into 3 sections, each section not only consist of different pieces of orchestral music, but it also has its own unique settings of amount and type of instruments which make the whole performance even more spectacular. The first part of the performance is occupied by Dongeun Lee’s I11e dixitin Somnis, Lawrence Huang is featured to perform his violin solo. This piece includes a variety of instruments as trumpets, violins, cello, double bass, etc. Lawrence has shown his dedication of emotion and skills on doing his violin solo, which worth the applause from all the audience at the end of this section The second of the performance is overwhelmed by four outstanding artists with four types of instruments which are featured in Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante in Eb, K. 297b that night. The premiere quality sounds from Oboe, clarinet, horn and bassoon are performed by the following artist in order: Suzanne Caristensen, Peter Brown, Paul schncider and Michael Garvey. Basically their performance is backed with an orchestra of two oboes, two horns, and strings. To be spotted on, the movements of this piece is rooted in E flat major, an Andante tempo is shown at a walking pace (76–108 bpm). The overall performance is well balanced, with the second bassoon constantly establishing a firm bass and the soloists play with the style to be well blended in the whole performance and certainly with admirable skill as well. The Third section of the performance is way more entertaining than the other two, which is not only performed in a variety of keys, but also consist of a world

The first piece, Oxycotton, was performed by Tim Sanchez using the marimba. The second one, Acht Stucke, was performed by Samantha Post using the flute.

    Once the violin enters the music feels so heavy, as if all of us in the audience almost have to hold our breaths from the sadness and tragedy that is being displayed. As the movement goes on the notes get higher, but are not relieved from any seriousness. This is an amazing example of how music can display tone without a single word or explanation. Grace Mei-En Ho, “an active soloist and chamber musician throughout the United States and Asia”, executes excellent technique during the extremely low parts of this movement. This movement was my favorite because it invoked an intense feeling that I could easily see wasn’t only felt by…

The concert was conducted by Phillip Brunelle, narrated by Katherrine Fennard and fiddled by Sara Pajounen. Recording devices and cameras were prohibited it could have been a nice opportunity to record and listen again. I arrived just on time and the singers all dressed in black suites for men and black dresses for women processed silently as they took their spots on the stage according to the parts they were practicing for while the audience cheered for them as they took their spots on stage.

    The first half of the program included two pieces, Piano Quartet in E-flat major, K. 493 composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Die Gebüsche composed by Franz Schubert. The most impressive piece for me was the first one. It was a chamber music from classical period. This concerto-like quartet had three movements, which gave us an echoing through the performance. There was a material between piano and strings that changes along the piece. The first movement was a sonata-form Allegro. A bright and genial opening establishes the major tone of the entire piece. This sonata-allegro also had a lot of narrow leaps which allows me feel lively. The second movement Larghetto was like a rapt dialogue between piano and strings. It started with solo piano. Then, it has a downcast and made me fell leisure. The third movement Allegretto was the finale of the piece, which has a moderately paced rondo. The characteristics of classical music include symmetrical, balanced phrases melody, dance rhythms, diatonic, tonic-dominant harmony, multimovement sonata-allegro form and homophonic. The violin tonic-dominant and the form of homophonic allowed me ensure that the piece is composed in Classical ear, but not from Baroque…

    The first piece I have picked out was “Oh, Had I Jubal’s Lyre” performed by Women’s Glee Club. I have heard a loud and sharp sounding piece. It started off with the soprano singing with a high pitch voice; then the alto with strong, gradually loud voice. The instruments were presented in this piece was piano and treble voices. The tempo throughout this piece are moderato and allegro. In other words, the tempo was repeating from moderate to fast. The song made me feels a little chilling, but also exciting because the dynamics were crescendo to forte, pianissimo combined with the fortepiano make it sound really sharp in an exciting way. I enjoyed this piece because it makes me feel happy as I listened along.…

    2 from the twentieth century period and it has only one movement. At the beginning of the piece for the first time the conductor gives a speech the music players how the are very busy this period, then he thanks the audience and appreciate them because they were very good listener. After that, he gives a little of background about the piece. Furthermore, this piece begin with a unique combination which are the oboe with has the main melody, piano, and glockenspiel. The oboe player was very professional I can see how he engaged with instrument while he playing the oboe. However, the guiro is the first time I see it astonished me it has very unique sound I can recognize it between many instruments and it gives amazing tone to the rhythm. The rhythm of this piece is predictable. This piece is consonant even you can dance with the rhythm, after I listen to the piece I understand what the conductor mean when he says jokes in his speech about dancing in the aisle. Additionally, there was a solo piccolo it was very nice. However, I notice that at the end of every piece the conductor will make some players to stand up I think it mean that play very good then will let all the group to stands up.…

    The first piece started on three strings playing together in dissonance harmony with a gloomy mood. Quickly afterwards, the violin led a main theme in the introduction part. Since this piece formed a theme and variation, the piece’s main them was repeated over and over, but it was changed each time in terms of harmony, dynamics, and mood and so on. According to the program note, the piece consists of seven variations on a folk-tune (“community chamber concert”). Whenever the changed theme was played, I felt like I heard totally new pieces. The main theme plucked by the violin was the most interesting part to me because the tone color of the violin was more lively compared to that of other…

It was a pleasure to have found the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra at the St. Luke’s Lutheran Church in Oviedo, FL, a part of St. Luke’s concert series of 2013-14 that has been held in the last nineteen years here in Oviedo, FL.

    The third work was mostly a dance, with the piano playing. The piece had crescendo in the beginning, a harsh sound, and an unmetered rhythm. The harmony was polyphonic. The piano player and trumpet player begin playing at the end. The fourth work was called "Three More Foxes". This piece was highly syncopated, with a fast tempo and very easy to hear. The harmony was polyphonic, and it had accents at different levels. The piece is not an easy tune to hum to, it will suddenly get louder.…
