People Are Talking: UMS presents Brahms’s German Requiem at Hill Auditorium:
Hi Taylor, I find it interesting that you could see the oboe player cleaning his instrument. I did not see him or her at all. Perhaps we were not located in similar spots.
Regardless, I did like the show and I was very interested in what it was like to be in a choral union and so it is nice to hear that other choir people enjoyed hearing the UMS choral Union.
I absolutely loved this performance, especially with my background in choral music. I was an active member in my high school choir so this was one of my favorite performances. However, I was distracted by the oboe player cleaning his instrument center stage. I’m already not a fan of the oboe so it was super annoying to watch. Overall, the choir sounded great, they blended well, and the orchestra was amazing!

People Are Talking: UMS presents Brahms’s German Requiem at Hill Auditorium:
Brahms German Requiem was actually a bit more interesting than I initially thought it was going to be. Truthfully I was not very interested in this performance beforehand. I think that meeting Nadine before the show helped me to connect a bit more to it. It was quite entertaining to hear her sing while thinking about her life story that she had told our class the day before. Otherwise, the show was still quite amazing and very impressive. I did become a bit bored at times but I expected that coming in.
