Specials:

Band Activity 1:


Listen to a song on the radio. Name the instruments you were able to hear from the recording and explain which instrument was used most in order to support the melody. Also, describe the overall mood of the song and how it was obtained through the use of instruments. Was it created through special selection of instruments based on their sound qualities or through simple changes in volume (loud/soft)?

Band Activity 2:

You should continue to practice your instrument for at least 15 minutes each day. As in the activity above, analyze your own part on each of the pieces we will be performing in our Spring Concert. With the exception of percussion, does your part appear to be a main melodic instrument or more of a supporting instrument? You may discover that yours is both! Examine your music for dynamics (loud and soft) and types of articulation (accents, staccato markings, etc.) and work to combine both together at the same time. Percussionists should pay close attention to the correct volume and style in which your rhythms are to be played. You may visit www.jwpepper.com to hear each of our selections if available on their website. Simply rest your cursor on the BAND heading at the top of their homepage and select "Concert" from the drop down list. Then, type the title of the piece into the search bar on the right side of the page. Click on the appropriate file based on composer/arranger and then listen by clicking on the speaker icon.
