Concert Report Guidelines

This paper will be a detailed analytical description of a cultural setting or cultural event based on field research. Field research means that you will attend and/or participate in a live performance, and your observations will be the basis of your paper.

Please note: Plagiarism means quoting someone else’s idea without acknowledging the source. If you do this in your paper you will fail the class!

In your paper you should include careful observations and descriptions of sounds that are used and considered meaningful in that social setting. Music is often part of social and cultural processes. It may function as a focus of cultural and national identity as in national anthems, or counter-cultural identity. It may have a spiritual connection as in a church, synagogue, or temple. It may reflect social solidarity as in African or calypso drumming. Or it may be a symbol representing other things or ideas as in music of the Kaluli people of Papua New Guinea. Your ethnography should move beyond mere descriptions of sound qualities to an analysis of the social and cultural dynamics of which music is a part.

When describing or analyzing a cultural setting, try to be as detached and objective as possible. We all have assumptions and biases that influence our impressions and conclusions. However, good social scientists refrain from making subjective statements. Rather, they collect as much evidence as possible to support their interpretation of an event. In your own project, rather than judge a sound by your own standards, find out all you can about the artistic and cultural values of the audience or musician so that you may better understand the background for this musical event. Learning to put aside your own assumptions and biases is an important step in becoming a better observer of other cultures.

Your paper should be 2-3 pages long, typed, double-spaced, and grammar/spell-checked. It should be carefully written with full citations of any sources you use for background, using footnotes or endnotes and a bibliography. Failure to submit a professional-looking paper will result in a lower grade.

Ethnography paper guidelines

Your paper must be based on a live performance but not necessarily a public concert. ( I will attach videos and pictures from the concert, as well as info about it and the performer )

2-3 pages, Times New Roman or similar,12-point font (no larger!).

Take the time to spell, grammar check and express yourself clearly. Don’t lose points because of this!

Any references to published material to be footnoted/included in a bibliography. (see guidelines).

No more than a third of the paper to be taken up by background information. The purpose of the paper is to describe all the elements of a specific live performance, and put it in its social context.

Use of metaphorical language makes your paper more colorful and helps tremendously in describing the effect of the music. Eg “the swirling music of the Turkish instrumentalists enhances the hypnotic effects of the whirling dervish performance”;

Other ideas to help you write the paper:

You may only be used to describing music in a personal way (I love it; I heard it last Tuesday on the radio; it reminds me of the sound of my cat crying; it makes me feel relaxed). By all means record your personal response to the performance: was it inspiring, beautiful, annoying, boring? But give reasons for your reactions.

And as best as you can try also to describe the music in an analytical way (what kinds, combinations and varieties of melody, scale, rhythm, texture, form, tone colors etc).

An interview of the performer is always useful in giving you a particular angle for your topic, but it is not always possible and not a required element of the paper (unless writing about classical, jazz or rock music)

Questions to think about (use only the ones that apply to your subject):

Why does this music exist? What is the value of this performance to the community at large? Does it bring disparate groups or people of like mind together? Is it primarily for relaxation or entertainment? Or does it have educational, religious, ritual, ceremonial, political, historical significance? What does the music tell you about the audience for which it is written/about the performer? What kind of people play or listen to this music? What are the performers/audience wearing? What does this say about the event? How is the performer treated by the audience-with great respect/as one of the crowd? Is the performer being paid/ just doing it for fun?

Is there a clear separation between performer and audience or does everyone contribute to the performance (by dancing, clapping etc)? What is the setting of the performance-in a bar/concert hall, formal/casual? Does the audience talk during the performance or pay silent attention?

What is the difference between listening to recorded music/watching a DVD and attending a live performance?

Is there variety in the performance, if so how is it achieved? How many instruments, how do they sound as a group, how do the performers interact with each other, is there a soloist or are they all equally important?

How loud/soft, slow/fast, and are there many changes in volume/speed during the performance? Why?

Can you tell if the performer is improvising, playing pre-composed music or a mixture of the two? How can you tell the difference? What is the effect?

What is your/the audience’s reaction to the performance? Is it different from the goal of the performer?

Is the performance successful? Is the performer talented? Why/not? Does it matter? What do you think the music is expressing?

You may make analogies between the music that you hear and other art forms from that culture (visual arts, literature, dance, food, clothing) eg just as Middle Eastern cooks add spices to food to make it more tasty and complex, their musicians also add many ornaments to the melodies to give them more beauty and depth.

If this is a production including words/dancing/costumes/make-up etc, imagine the performance without music and then describe how the music complements/enhances the other elements. This point is very important if you are reviewing a dance performance-make sure you write a paper about the music primarily and describe the dance as one of the elements in the performance, not the only element in the performance. Or if there are songs-what is the effect of the poetry by itself/what does the music add to the words? Include examples of the lyrics in your paper and explain why that kind of music is sung to those particular words.

After reading the Dorfman article, “Public Pensions are Still Marching to Their Death”, respond to the following questions:

• What are the political reasons public pensions are underfunded?
• If the pension problem is political, what steps would have to occur to remedy the problem? Do you think such a remedy will ever take place?
• If you do not see a remedy for the situation, what do you predict will happen to public pensions in the future?

• Chapter 5: The Rights of Employees Under the National Labor Relations Act
• Chapter 6: Public Sector Unions

Week Three Lecture

This week our course explores how labor relations works in the contemporary workplace. That specifically includes examining how employer, employee, and labor union interact to create a well-functioning workplace wherein workers’ right are protected, labor unions are allowed to engage in protected concerted activity, and employers are able to carry out the mission and vision of their organizations…or not. If each actor in this situation does not take appropriate responsibility for working well together, the costs are high, especially in an increasingly competitive global environment where other organizations are eager to increase their market share.

Chapter 5 of the Seaquist (2015) text focuses on the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), a federal organization with regional branches that exists to enforce the rights of workers (both union and non-union), labor organizations, and employers in conjunction with the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). The NLRB enforces workers’ rights to 1) self-organize as in joining, forming or engaging in union activities such as boycotts or strikes intended to improve working conditions; 2) bargain collectively, as in regularly participating in union negotiations, or; 3) refrain from engaging in labor unions – such as not being forced to engage in the union if one opts out. As you will see, NLRB charges can be filed against either labor organization or employer – or both. Chapter 5 provides a solid overview of the rights and responsibilities of each of the actors involved and how their work together in protected concerted activity otherwise known as employee-labor relations can benefit all of them.

Chapter 6 of the course text examines the role of employee labor relations in the public sector. Public sector unions differ from those in the private sector in various ways including, but not limited to, freedom from competing with market forces. However, as you will learn, public union contracts have long and short term economic and political impacts beyond benefits to members of their respective organizations and occupations. This is an increasingly important topic in the 21st century as various levels of government attempt to exercise fiscal and social responsibility while honoring past and existing agreements that have serious impacts on communities and the people who live in them, in addition to the union members in occupations that serve those communities. Ethics and accountability are vital considerations for all actors in these negotiations as they often affect essential occupations such as many in education and public safety. Notably, Chapter 6 ends with an eye toward the future of these unions and it leads us into practical applications in future weeks of our course.
