Download or read book Classroom Guitar Ensembles written by Billy Prewitt and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-10-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This product includes the scores and student parts and is licensed for the original purchaser to make up to 30 physical copies for classroom and performance use. Digital copies and/or sharing is prohibited. Classroom Guitar Ensembles: Volume 2 includes six pieces that are written in the treble clef and have been performed by 7th and 8th grade students. These are quite a bit more difficult than the pieces in Volume 1 of this series, so it is recommended that these be used with second and third year students. Ukrainian Christmas Carol is an arrangement of this Christmas favorite in 6/8 time. It is in four parts with differentiated levels of difficulty. This allows for more advanced students to be challenged without overwhelming the others. This one is recommended for a winter concert after at least a full year of instruction with the students. Tranquility is an original in 3/4 time. The parts are differentiated to some extent, but the 4th part will require students who have a good sense of timing. This one can be a good piece for a concert at the end of the second year of instruction. Pachelbel's Canon is the easiest piece in this collection. It has been successfully performed at the end of the first year of instruction with 7th and 8th grade students. This arrangement is in 4 parts. The 4th part is quite easy. The first part is the most challenging, and the 2nd part includes strummed chords. Plainsong Variations could be done at the end of a first year. It is based on the modal concept of melody used in the Medieval period, but the piece as a whole is somewhat modern. It is in 4 parts and includes body percussion as well as percussion sounds such as tapping on the guitar body and tapping picks on music stands. It also includes a singing section. Students enjoy this one because of the variety of sounds they get to create. Blaze is somewhat of a chord piece in an oldies rock style. The first 36 measures are unison then it breaks into 3 parts for the duration. It is a bit challenging on technique. Even so, it is attainable by the end of the second year. Swingin' is in a bluesy swing style. It is in 3 parts and includes a 12 bar improvisation section using a G blues scale (G, Bb, C, Db, D, F) or a Bb pentatonic scale (Bb, C, D, F, G). This works best for students in 3rd position using frets 3-6. For class, the improv section can be done over and over again. For performances, selecting one or two soloists is appropriate. Full demo recordings of these pieces can be previewed at speaktometoday.com/b&rmusic

Download or read book Classroom Guitar for School Music Program written by Richard Tyborowski and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-03 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over twenty years of my professional life, I have taught guitar at all levels from introductory to postgraduate. When I was first asked to teach in the Grades 5-8 School Guitar Program, I was both excited at the prospect and apprehensive about the challenges ahead. I had never taught in such environment before, and I wondered how my knowledge of the guitar world would resonate with large groups of children. The first year turned out to be a string of mini-disasters, at least from my point of view.Obviously, I needed to change something and, upon reflection, decided to change my Guitar Class to a Guitar Orchestra. In a guitar ensemble, it is less important how difficult the notes are and much more important how different notes are performed together. Once I adopted and implemented this principle, my Guitar Orchestra started sounding much better from the very first note. Instead of playing the same notes together, students started playing in four voice harmony.This approach created more interest and, of course, more attention among students. That initial success was also the starting point of this book.
