At the end of each week you will demonstrate skills learned throughout the week. Be able to show those skills. -You do not play your guitar when I ask you not to be playing. Attendance: If you can t attend class, communicate with me about the reason why. Documentation may be required. Your grade is based primarily on the Midterm and Final exam. YOUR EXAMS ARE THE PRIMARY DETERMINANT OF YOUR FINAL GRADE Concert Attendance: Students will be required to attend two concerts. One will be an ISU student or faculty solo or ensemble performance selected by your instructor and announced during the semester (there may be multiple opportunities). Another must be a performance featuring guitar at a venue off campus in the Bloomington/Normal area such as Jazz UpFront or a band/performer at another local venue. Ask your instructor if the performance you are considering is applicable (most will be). A photo or other documentation such as a ticket stub proving your attendance is required. A one page report for each concert detailing your observations at both concerts will be due within two weeks of the date you attended the performance. The goal of this paper is to see how the guitar is used in real world performance contexts and how the guitar is enjoyed by audiences. The report should answer the following 6 questions: -What style(s) of music where performed? Country, pop, jazz, etc? -What artists where featured? Originals? covers? If it was a cover band, who was featured (Taylor Swift, The Beatles, Duke Ellington, etc.)? -Who was in the audience and how where they engaging with the music (young people, older people, families, single people, couples?) Where they dancing? Singing along? Listening attentively? Eating? Drinking? Talking? Etc. -How did the artist engage with the crowd? Did they talk to the crowd at all during or after the show or between sets? If they did, what types of things did they say? If they did not interact with the crowd, what did they do in between sets or during and after performances? -Techniques used? Finger style, picks, capo, bar chords, open chords? In what context (slow songs vs. fast songs, or different styles such as finger style in country and pick in rock. Open chords in pop music and power chords in rock?
5 -Electronics/equipment used? Amps, PA system, effect pedals, acoustic vs electric guitar, cart to carry gear, back pack, books such as the real book, etc. How did this equipment effect the performance? Did they use a lot of effects pedals? How did that effect your experience? Was their a foot stool? Did they have a lot to cary to the car before or after the gig, or was their set up compact? This paper is graded on your demonstration of effort and thoughtfulness. There is no word count and the length requirement is not to be taken too literally (and please don t ask for either). Show in the paper that you payed attention at these performances to the things I am asking you to think about, that you care about this course and your grade, and show why you chose to study guitar. 5 observations for each question should be sufficient.
