Essay Analysis
Step 2: Construct an Outline
Construct an outline for your essay. This should be about one full page in length. It can be handwritten.
The first paragraph will state the performances you chose to review, along with any relevant information about why you chose those selections.
The middle paragraphs should contain details about specific songs or qualities of the performance. Each middle paragraph will have a topic sentence, and the preceding sentences in that paragraph will provide details about that topic sentence. Since you are reviewing five performances, A good way to structure the essay would be one paragraph for each performance. But, if you have a lot to say about a particular performance, you might end up writing two paragraphs about a particular performance.
The final paragraph should summarize the overall impact of the concert experience. The final paragraph is the best place to state overall opinion or conjecture.
