Writing A Review For Concert Band Music

By Katina Brady


Many concerts are usually organized by bands or just single artists so that they can promote their new songs or just released an album. Most of them are done in form of tours where the involved artists organize a series of concerts in different towns and cities. The music industry is very competitive and therefore sometimes it is necessary to review the concert band music in order to compare different musicians and also to compare their live and recorded works.

There are certain things that need to be done in order to come up with the best review. The reviewer is first required to listen to the classics of the band whose concert they are going to review. This will help them to get a touch of their kind of music in case they have never heard them before. They should also make sure they get all the names of band members together with the instruments they play so that they can seem like a credible reviewer.

After the beginning of these shows, it is advisable that the reviewer writes some short notes on what is happening at the event. For example, they can write about the connection the artists have with their audience and the connection they have to their songs. When every song is performed, the reviewer must make sure they know its name and write it down. If they do not, they can ask any fan standing beside them.

If any key expressions are made in any song, the reviewer may scribble it down to look for the real meaning after the event. The spoken accounts of artists must also be written for they can be used. They must also write information about the arrangement of the performance stage and also the singing environment in which the band is performing.

After the concert is over, the reviewer should later collect all the short notes they scribbled into an actual review. The first thing to be done is to sum up every single information about the band name, names of members and their roles, the concert name and location and also whether other acts performed in the event in the first paragraph. They can also include some information on the show-up and the songs that were presented.

The review must also include information about the experiences of the reviewer and the kind of reception the fans gave the performers. In case they performed any rare songs or covers of songs by other artists, this can be mentioned in the review.

In case the critic intends to have his work published, he should try to present it to all the local publishers in the area such as the daily newspaper and the school magazine. If the publishing company pays for the article, well and good but if it does not this must not be taken negatively because they are just beginners anyway.

All the rules about writing apply when making concert reviews. The review must have a feel that excites the readers. Practicing will always make someone better hence the reviewer should write as many reviews as they can in order to make their work perfect. In order to do so they have to attend all the band concerts whenever they get an opportunity.
