Performance: Applying Skills & Concepts
Making music requires a commitment to engage in its complexities and expand personal skill.
Using a developing sense of community, the ensemble can grow as a unit, just as its individual parts develop.
Learning Outcomes:
- Students will read and maintain a part within complex textures and harmonies.
- Students will apply an increasing range of tempos, dynamics, articulation, and timbres in classroom repertoire.
Learning Activities:
- Rehearsal (entire group, sectionals, some small ensembles)
- Variety of performances (formal concerts, assemblies, performing in, for, and with the broader community)
Resources:
Engaging music – providing challenge as well as opportunity to be successful!
Assessment:
- Rehearsal
- Playing tests (In pre-determined small groups with an individual component, or entirely individual – formative and summative)
