Audience noises likecrinkling wrappers

well as the performers.

Try to keep these kinds of sounds to a minimum and use breaks between
pieces and the intermission to leave or cough.

Many classical music concert-goers tend to dress up a little to go to a
concert. Even if you don’t come in your formal-wear, you might want to avoid
wearing anything too grungy.

When to Clap
![Page 8: Classical Music Audience Etiquette](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110115/54bb05834a7959d5478b45e7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
It can be difficult to know when to clap at a classical concert. That’s because some musical pieces are broken up into sections, called “movements.”

It can be tempting to clap between movements, but audience members
who follow good concert etiquette only clap after the last movement of a
piece.

If you’re not sure when to clap, just follow the lead of the audience
members around you.

It’s also customary to clap for performers when they come on stage, before a single note is played. This is
to thank and acknowledge the performers for sharing their talents.

End of the Concert
![Page 13: Classical Music Audience Etiquette](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110115/54bb05834a7959d5478b45e7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
At the end of a concert, if there is enough clapping, the performer or
performers may return to the stage to bow again or even perform another
piece, called an “encore.”

Stick around after the last piece has ended and you may have the opportunity to see even more
wonderful music being performed!
