Book Description
Starting Out Right: Beginning Band Pedagogy is the only complete resource for organizing, planning, and teaching beginning woodwind, brass, and percussion students. The book covers every aspect of teaching beginning band students from the first sounds on the instruments through the first full-band performances. It is the only comprehensive reference that offers step-by-step guidelines for teaching each beginning band instrument, as well as organizing and running a successful beginning band program. Based on the public school teaching experience of the author, the book is designed for use in undergraduate methods and pedagogy classes as well as for clinics and workshops at the undergraduate and graduate levels. This book is also designed to be a reference for the many novice teachers who lead beginning bands or those teachers whose expertise is not in the band realm. While the focus of the book is on teaching beginning band, much of the book can be of use to band instructors at any grade level. The book is divided into several parts, which cover the sound-to-sign-to-theory approach to teaching musical literacy; child development as it relates to teaching music; recruiting and retaining students; developing fundamental sounds and skills on each woodwind, brass, and percussion instrument; teaching students to read tonal and rhythmic music notation; and selecting and rehearsing beginning band solo, ensemble, and full-band music. The book also addresses curriculum design, scheduling, and staffing of band programs. Ideas about managing student records, inventory, and equipment are also given special attention. Written in a casual narrative style, the book features real-world examples of how the principles in the book might be applied to actual teaching situations. Another special feature of the book is a set of early field-experience application exercises. Starting Out Right guides readers as they explore a comprehensive individual and ensemble approach to teaching each woodwind, brass, and percussion instrument.

A Content Analysis and Comparison of Beginning Band Methods and Beginning Studio Methods for Euphonium

Category : Euphonium
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Twenty-three beginning band method books are available in America, yet little pedagogical agreement exists concerning musical and technical elements. These variables emanate from the large ensemble design for each method. Certain starting pitches may enhance the overall beginning band experience while leaving the beginning euphonium student frustrated. These methods contain little substantive pedagogical framework that offers a thorough approach to musical growth. Many methods require the performance of pitches higher than the first partial. This requirement may cause embouchure malformation, negatively affecting their future flexibility and endurance. This qualitative study will codify the first pitches, pitch sequences, exercise ranges, rhythm sequences, articulations, and dynamics of these beginning band methods. The collection of this data may reveal similarities and differences between methods, leading to the possible pairing of beginning studio methods for euphonium. Before this pairing occurs, the study will examine seven beginning studio methods with the same criteria as the band methods. This pairing of select beginning band and euphonium methods may build consistency and musical growth of the beginning euphonium student. This study may encourage the future pairing of beginning band methods with other brass beginning studio methods, thus broadening student development. The conclusions of this study may result in designing a companion band method guide for use with specific studio methods, creating a supplemental, integrated studio method for use with band methods, or creating a new beginning studio method for the euphonium.
