On April 16, I attended the student concert in the theater on the 2nd floor of SWIC. Apparently it was the last recital of the year. The spotlights were on the stage and it was dark in the audience. The only well-dressed people in the audience were the performers who weren't yet backstage. Everyone else was wearing normal, casual clothes. The room was quite large. The first act was Sonata 1 in F major. This came from the Baroque era. This was written by Benedetto Marcello. Originally a tuba solo, this piece was accompanied by piano. Christopher Smith played the tuba, while Diana Umali played the piano. The woman was of Asian descent and was wearing a black shirt, black pants and black ballet flats. The Caucasian gentleman wore a rust-colored dress shirt, black pants and dress shoes. Largo 1 was slow and a bit depressing. He looked melancholy. Largo II seemed to go from strength to strength. Largo III picked up speed. I actually liked it and it started faster. The duo finally finished at around seven minutes and forty-eight seconds. They gathered their chairs and lecterns and left the stage. Then a young black girl, Kayla Jennings, takes the stage. An older man, Dennis Bergin, comes out on stage and sits on the bench in front of the piano. She was wearing a beautiful dress. The girl then runs backstage, as if she had forgotten something. He walked back out and stood in the center of the stage. Then he points to the pianist. The girl then starts singing Homeward Bound by Jay Althouse. The girl was a soprano and I could tell she was nervous. He seemed to laugh a lot during the song, as if he wasn't taking it seriously. About three minutes into the song, Kayla laughs and proceeds to put it… halfway down the card… and stick the guitar on. Then he went backstage and returned with a lectern in his hand. He placed it in front of the chair. I loved the rhythm and rhythm of his song. It was loud and I could tell he was singing, but it wasn't loud enough for me to understand the words. He seemed to be playing with his eyes closed the whole time. Then there was Misty by Erroll Garner of Golden Era, played by Jordan Felix on guitar. It was nice and slow. The last song was about four minutes long. It was Careless Whisper by George Michael, a pop singer, performed by four people. Terrion Peete was on piano, Bryant Powell on bass, Jillane Ostlund on vocals and James Ostlund on percussion. This had to be my favorite act of the entire concert. It was nice and fast with a good pace. The lyrics were clear. The song was sung with passion.
