What kind of listener were you at the concert?
concert report
You will need to attend a symphony orchestra concert, opera, or chamber music concert in order to complete it. As long as it is a symphony orchestra concert, opera, or a chamber music concert, any event is OK. If you go to a chamber music concert, if possible, try to find a “professional” rather than a “community” production. In any case, you must find a way to see the orchestra at some point in the performance.
here are some websites to look for a concert.
