Music 2701A/B Lecture 7: MUSIC 2701A LECTURE 7
Document Summary
Interesting title on a separate title page that hints of what is to come. Has a statement of purpose introducing major points you are going to discuss in support of your thesis. Concludes with a few sentences that do not merely restate the introduction. Unlike a newspaper review that tries to cover all the elements of the performance. Cover one element from each of these areas: Text (the immutable elements of a show such as story, music, lyrics) Performance (elements that can change from one production to another; the direction or director"s concept, movement, performances of specific actors including vocal, dance or acting) Design (visual and aural elements like costumes, sets and props, lighting and sound) Tone is informal, but writing i formal and scholarly. Use of the personal pronoun i is acceptable. Cognizant of the type of company that is putting on the show- professional community, adults/children, critique fairly.
