Lesson 6 (Aug. 30), 7 (Sep. 1)

Lesson 6 (Aug. 30): Online, self study

• Double check on what to expect on assessment in the Experimenting music as a performer

  • be sure you have a clear rationale on your experiment on your choice of instrument

  • if you're thinking to change your instrument, you MUST write a new rationale for the new instrument

  • make sure you include pieces that will cover all three musical context (personal, local, global), and one of four AOIs

Lesson 7 (Sept. 1): Presentations, individual meetings

• Japanese traditional musical genre presentations

  • some of you are online but you should be able to present your own section via zoom or other methods as well

• Individual meeting: experimenting music as a performer (1st official interaction)

  • within the 2-year programme, you are required to have three official interactions with the teacher

  • go over the guide again with students

  • the first one would be mainly on the performer side of the experimental part, but I will also ask you about the creator side informally (no need to prepare anything on this part)
