Recitals: We sponsor one recital a year called our Fall Showcase. This is the place where we feature our younger beginner musicians of all skill sets.
There are not any concert fees for recitals we sponsor. Ex: I'm going to the Adele concert tomorrow at the Honda Center! I got front row tickets, too! Thank you. See a translation. The one learning a language! Learn about premium features. In German, there's a translation for recital, but the word's not really in use. I have a different take: in a "concert" the performer s is are paid; in a "recital" no payment is made. Thus making a 'free concert' an oxymoron This thread did take off!
I've always thought of a recital in terms of a particular teacher's student playing what they have learned with that teacher i. A concert , on the other hand, would be a particular musician or group of professional musicians performing. In my mind, a concert would be longer and more difficult music, whereas a recital could be as short as minutes, and music demonstrating the performer's abilities. A recital would not charge admission, while a concert may, or may not. I'm never sure what to call it.
Thank you for all your information. I'm never sure what to call it when I play with a group. An organ recital is what you get when visiting elderly relatives and hear complaints about their liver, heart, gall bladder, etc.. Most "free concerts" are only free to the public--the performers are paid by someone. If nothing else, the space is provided by someone who might normally charge for it. We speak of a "dedicatory recital" when a new organ is installed, and a "senior recital" when an organ major presents his final program for his degree.
And of course, we all had those "recitals" as young piano students when we played "Goodbye, Old Paint" before the assembly of our peers and all our parents. So I tend to think of a "recital" as a "show-off" event of some kind -- presenting a new instrument, presenting a student's best work at the end of a year or course of study.
The intended audience is somewhat limited, in practice if not in fact, to a specific group of attendees who have some connection to the instrument or performers.
A concert, on the other hand, to me at least, is more of a general musical event that is aimed at the broader public, whether or not there is an admission charge. Rather than being limited to demonstrating a student's accumulated skills or directed at showing off a new or rebuilt instrument, a concert is purely a musical presentation intended for the pleasure of the hearers.
But that may be a distinction without a difference. Just my personal impressions. FWIW, wikipedia states that the "invention of the solo piano recital" has been attributed to Listz, who had a pretty top-notch rep, in his day at least.
I would say that the situation of a student playing, either as a course requirement, or simply the typical private teacher's students, is usually referred to as a recital, but I believe I have seen ads for "recitals" by professional musicians. In the case of pros, a recital is usually a soloist, perhaps accompanied by pianist, or in the case of baroque, continuo.
There also might a a bit of a tendency to use these terms to hint at the audience size: a recital might take in a smaller hall while the concert in a large auditorium. But if you wanted to play some at a local pub or whatever and bill it as a concert, I doubt the music police would show up. Post by eusma » Tue Jan 26, pm Concerto is to play together Recital is a solo performance music or reading of poetry But the terms are used loosely..
It has no implication as to professional or amateur, it has no indication of how large or small the hall audience might be.. I have played in very large halls with sound support and also in very small places, some have been with admission fee other for free When I was in a rock band years ago I opened for a big act in a large stadium in what was labeled as a concert, but also played in small pubs and still was labeled as a concert Someone correctly pointed out that the term "Recital" was introduced by Franz Liszt for his solo piano performances..
