THIS ASSIGNMENT, IT IS DUE IN 2 DAYS ON SUNDAY 6/21/15 AT 6:00pm PACIFIC STANDARD TIME.
This paper should be 750-1000 words in length. In addition to these elements, please be sure to fulfill the Requirements for Writing Assignments, including citing all sources (including the concerts) both in the body of the text and in a reference page. Please note that MLA is the standard citation style in the humanities. It is not necessary to upload your chosen video clips with the submission of your paper, however the links should be cited in the body of the text and in your reference page.
Choose two excerpts of a concert, one of a pop or rock concert from modern times and one of a performance of Baroque music. (This performance would by necessity be a performance of Baroque music performed in modern times.) Each excerpt should be approximately 10 minutes in length. If you are using Youtube, you may need to combine two clips from one performance in order to meet this requirement because most clips on Youtube are less than 10 minutes in length.
After viewing the concert excerpts, construct a comparison of these two concerts. Did you enjoy the concerts? If so, why? If not, why not? How does the music differ between the Baroque era and now? How is the music similar? How does the role of concerts differ between the Baroque era and now? What types of people attended concerts in the Baroque Era? Who attends concerts now? Why do people attend concerts? How do new technologies, such as digital media and the internet, change the ways we experience music?
