Class 7 Arts (Kriti) Chapter 9, Performance, is a practical three-stage guide—Plan, Prepare, Perform—for organizing a live school music concert incorporating classical, devotional and regional folk songs.
What Class 7 Art Chapter 9 Covers
Part A & B: Plan and Prepare (Activities 9.1–9.5) walks students through choosing a concert theme, curating a diverse song list including regional folk music, conducting peer-feedback rehearsals, and managing stage production, acoustics and invitations.
Part C: Final Performance & Assessment (Activity 9.6) presents the ensemble concert before an audience and evaluates musical accuracy, expression, teamwork and stage presence.
Choosing the music: the class lists songs from the book and songs students know, then adds a folk song from a tradition other than their own, researched online or learnt from local musicians.
Producing the show: beyond rehearsing with feedback, the team designs a stage that fits the theme, arranges lights and sound, and promotes the event. On the day you welcome the audience, introduce the show, perform, thank everyone, and record the performance to review afterwards.
