The concert at Carnegie Hall we went to last Monday was my first concert of that kind. I've been to concerts before but obviously the experinece you get from a concert at Carnegie Hall is way different then the one you get at a Metallica concert. I really enjoyed the concert at Carnegie Hall. I really was unsure whether or not it would interest me. When I walked into the room where the concert was being held, I was suprised that it was so small. I actually really liked the fact that it was a small auditorium. That room was beautiful.

Last Monday, we had our class visit to a performance at Carnegie Hall. The performance was a celebration of Chinese culture, featuring colorful and unpredictable music and a talented ensemble. When the lights dimmed, the show began and the stage looked like it was miles away. It transformed into a different scene that became a part of the artists' performace.

“Ancient Path Modern Voices” is a festival celebrating Chinese culture organized by Carnegie Hall. Attending it was an experience that changed my perspective on the classical music. I, who am not very fond of traditional music, because as I am not musically educated I do not understand it, liked it. To me, as the music does not have lyrics and most of the time is somewhat slow, it resembles a noise rather than a song. At the same time an oeuvre is not a song but a symphony.

 As I have said before, I'm somewhat disappointed that we do not touch upon the topic of film in this class.
