High stakes musical Jenga! We played with points, so in order to get your point, you had to name and define the symbol or term written on the block you pulled before placing it on top. You can see some of the prompts after the tower falls. Played with two levels of difficulty (different symbols on opposite sides of the block).

Make some noise! Audiences haven't always been silent; they clapped, whooped, hissed. How do you feel about applause and showing appreciation between movements or even during especially impactful moments of a piece? Let's maybe not go back to throwing vegetables, though.

Why there's silence between movements in the concert hall -- and whether it's a good thing.
