Tips For Those Heading Out To See The California Chamber Orchestra

By Ronald Burns


Live performances are thrilling to watch. Whether it is a talented artist belting out a certain note or an instrumentalist wowing the crowd, it is all worth seeing. People are keen on the raw talent of the artists often unaided as they are on stage. Those who want to experience the sound of a California Chamber Orchestra should prepare for a show in the following ways.

Dress comfortably. Individuals are free to wear whatever they want when going to watch people perform. There are those who wear casual outfits which are composed of jeans and casual t-shirts. Other people dress up and are seen in tuxedos and nice gowns. In situations where a dressing code is necessary, the information is communicated to the audience so that everyone is aware of what is expected of them.

Have a meal before heading out to watch the orchestra. A regular concert runs for at least forty-five minutes to two hours. This is a long period for one to survive on an empty stomach. People are not allowed to eat as the performance goes on. People often opt to eat some snacks or a good meal that can keep them going until they get another chance to eat.

Avoid any preconceived ideas about what to expect. Step into the place with a clear head and ready to see what the professionals have prepared. People often enjoy the sweet melodies produced skillfully through various instruments. Although this is a new experience for many people, they often hear rhythms familiar to certain songs they have heard before

Identify the age limits set for the audience. Every session is different. There are those that have restrictions for those who can attend while others are just for everybody. Concerts that will go on for a while are not appropriate for kids. They can easily disrupt the music, and this will affect the instrumentalists and ruin the whole set up.

Avoid being late. Those who make it here once performances have started have to wait in the lobby or watch from uncomfortable positions. This is until there is a break and movement is permitted. Latecomers can cause trouble and are therefore not allowed to walk around when other people are sitting. Those who come in early can settle with ease and get to enjoy the sessions from the moment they begin.

Silence electronic items. This is a rule for those who go in with their phones. Calls can come in at any time, and these should not affect the main action that is taking place. People can use the time availed for breaks to call the people they need to talk to and sort things out before they switch them off to concentrate on the music later on.

Applaud at the right time. It is always awkward to start clapping when no one else is doing the same. The performers might have taken a slight pause in their piece making someone feel as if they are done. Applauding at a time when they intended to continue is noisy and interrupts the flow of activity. Clap when other people are clapping as well or when the musicians lower their instruments.
