Week of February 16- February 20.
We will be working on the F concert scale. Those who tested on this scale last semester will be given specific benchmarks to meet with this scale to improve your peformance. We are continuing a unit on syncopation. To help with both goals (scales and syncopated rhythms) we are drilling syncopated rhythms on scale tones.
We have chosen 3 pieces for our concert. They all have unique challenges. We will be working on these to overcome playing challenges and learn new things!
Students will also be given independent practice time to work on their band karate levels.
On Mondays, students will be allotted class time to work on their Band Karate levels. Students should come to class prepared to record the next two or three pieces toward that goal.
