Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I totally don't get what to write about except her eccentric movements while playing, beautifully as she played, but i can't write about that. it was in St. Turibius Chapel at the josephinum. This looks like it was the program Holst – St. Paul’s Suite Bach – Suite for Solo Cello Noon – Buxtehude: Adagio & Allegro Haydn – Cello Concerto in D major Just writing about those composers alone should fill up lots of space. Hint they're all different time periods and styles. The difference between a "solo" performance (just cello the Bach) and duo. Aspects of the cello; range, tone color, techniques (pizzacato, bowing, etc...) She is a very "young" artist, if you want to talk about that. Hope you enjoyed the concert, she is making a lot of news these days you have been lucky to hear someone early in their carrer who might become a real champion of the music in the years to come. Why can't you write about the eccentric movements? Those are a part of the performance. Think hard. What was her melody like--was it technical, was it like singing, was it quirky? What about her harmonies? You already have the gut reaction that she played beautifully--do the "sublime" thing and consider what aspect, in particular, of her playing moved you. |
