The teacher will:
review the importance of successfully counting/clapping the TMEA All-State audition music
demonstrate how students should never perform beyond their instruments most resonant sound
explain the importance of matching tonal energy and color when moving from one note to another
demonstrate the proper manner in which to articulate the notes and various note patterns
review and reinforce the importance of a uniform counting system
perform various musical rhythms on Concert F
so that the student will:
practice the required etudes slow and then begin increasing the tempo as each measure is mastered.
analyze and critically listen for the cleanest/purest tone production possible.
comprehend the concept that they must use equal energy on all notes regardless of intervallic distance.
comprehend that you should never stop the tone with the tongue unless the music requires you to do so.
make connections and apply the concepts to their actual musical performance.
notate the rhythm that the director or student volunteer has performed.
Blooms Connection: Students will apply and demonstrate proper warm-up procedure. The more experienced
students will actively participate in assisting the younger students through mentoring and modeling.
