Sit back and open your ears and mind. Get Involved! If you
want to close your eyes to concentrate
better, do so. Watch the conductor. Can you figure out what his body language is
saying. How do the musicians respond to these non-verbal instructions? Don't
worry if your mind wanders. It happens to everyone (even critics!). Don't chat,
whisper or eat while the music is playing. Remember it's impolite to leave
before the applause is over. And it is also impolite to enter the auditorium
after the music has started, wait outside until a movement or selection ends and
then quietly 'slip' into your seat.
The Movements
Symphonies generally encompass four movements, the first moderately fast, the
second is usually the slowest, the third is a dance-like minuet and fourth, or
finale, usually brings the work to a lively or triumphant conclusion. Please do
not applaud between the movements. When the music is over you can clap, cheer,
whistle and even yell "Bravo" to let the orchestra know you enjoyed the
performance.
