1) What was your favorite musical moment of the event (and why)?
Grading:

16 points for answers that satisfy these requirements:

1)  Minimum three sentences;

2)  Good English;

3)  Address both parts of the question (“what” and “why”).

2 points removed for each missing component (e.g., two sentences rather than three,
bad English, “what” answered but not “why”).

2) What musical elements did you notice in that selection (e.g., rhythm, melody,
harmony, texture, dynamics, and/or something else)?

Grading:

16 points for answers that satisfy these requirements:

1)  Minimum four sentences (note: you can devote all four to a single
musical trait, or you can spread them over more than one trait);

2)  Good English;

3)  Musical trait(s) clearly understood. (Note: the grader will not have the
means to compare what you have written to the music itself, so
understanding a trait simply means writing about it in a way that makes
sense.)

2 points removed for each missing component.

3) Anything you disliked (and why)?

Grading:

16 points for answers that satisfy these requirements:

1)  Minimum two sentences;

2)  Good English;

3)  Address both parts of the question (what you disliked and why). Note:
if there was nothing you disliked, then spend those two sentences
defending that position; for instance, you could identify what you tend
not to like in a musical performance and then speculate on why that
style, trait, etc. would not be present in an event of this nature.

2 points removed for each missing component.

4) To what degree did the audience participate in this event (on a scale from
“very passive” to “very involved”), relative to audiences at other types of
musical events?

Grading:

16 points for answers that satisfy these requirements:

1)  Minimum two sentences;

2)  Good English;

3)  Both an identification of the audience’s level of participation and, as a

way of justifying your judgment, a comparison of this audience to those
at other kinds of musical events.

2 points removed for each missing component.

5) What was the audience’s reaction to this music? Did people seem to enjoy the
music? Did they walk out? Did audience members interact with each other (and
if so, while the music was playing or between numbers)?
Grading:

1)  Minimum two sentences;

2)  Good English;

3)  Answers that address at least two of the issues raised in this cluster of
questions.
