Download or read book Developing Musicianship With Listening Excerpts written by Jim Childers and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-04-19 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents information about how to be organized and efficient in using a small but effective amount of listening to develop students' musical concepts. Words, and their connotative meanings often fall short and fail to produce what a director hopes to hear. Having great bands playing those desired elements from within great pieces of music can and will improve your students. I feel listening has been a great benefit to my students. I have spent a lot of time attempting to be more efficient in how I present listening excerpts. The main section of this book contains many tables that list the time stamps of excerpts from numerous recordings. Incorporate listening excerpts into your teaching. You and your students will benefit greatly.

Download or read book Listen Up written by Brent M. Gault and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Listen Up!, author Brent Gault approaches listening instruction by actively using other musical behaviors (singing, moving, chanting, creating) and aural, visual, and kinesthetic learning modes. This in turn becomes a way to foster in young children a deeper, more meaningful connection with musical material while at the same time strengthening their active listening skills. The book provides teachers with a compendium of sample experiences that utilize music listening excerpts not only to offer an opportunity to listen to select pieces of music, but to also reinforce given musical concepts (rhythm, melody, form) that are made prominent in the selections. While teachers may use Gault's examples exactly as they stand, Gault also provides an opening section of strategies that they may use to develop their own listening lessons based on the ones in the book, with the hope that they will develop their own strategies and lessons in the future. A key selling point for Listen Up! is its dedicated companion website of slides for each lesson, with visual material that students can view and respond to as they listen. An innovative and engaging book-and-website resource, Listen Up! will be of practical interest to elementary music specialists for use in music classrooms. The book will also be a resource for methods teachers working with pre-service music educators in addition to music education undergraduate and graduate students preparing to teach music at the elementary level.

Download or read book Listening Excerpts to Develop Jazz Musicianship written by Jim Childers and published by . This book was released on with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Imagine an art teacher saying, "Today, we are going to paint in the impressionistic style" and then using only words to describe that style. It would be a frustrating activity for all involved. Displaying classic art by Monet or Degas would be a far better way to grow students' visual concept of impressionism. Similarly, the best way to develop a young jazz musician's understanding of how jazz is supposed to sound is through great listening examples. In this resource for experienced and novice jazz educators, author Jim Childers organizes hundreds of great jazz recordings into tables--and provides companion Spotify and YouTube playlists--to showcase specific concepts, styles, characteristic tone, genres, emotion, and more"--Back cover
Download or read book Listen Up written by Brent M. Gault and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "All people respond to music through listening. Since this music behavior is such a universal part of life, and the skills fostered through critical listening to music can transfer to many other areas, emphasizing listening in a given music curriculum is logical. Children learn actively through direct experience with given concepts. Because of this, it makes sense to approach listening instruction actively by using other music behaviors (singing, moving, chanting, creating) and aural, visual, and kinesthetic learning modes as a way to develop a deeper connection with musical material while fostering music skills and introducing or reinforcing music concepts. Listen Up! includes sample experiences that provide an opportunity for children to listen to musical selections while also fostering music skills and reinforcing given music concepts (rhythm, melody, form) that are prominent in those selections. In addition to providing an overview of the planning process for developing these types of lessons, and including sample experiences for 23 specific pieces, the collection also contains PowerPoint presentations to accompany each experience that provide material students can view and respond to as they listen." -- Provided by publisher.

Download or read book Music Outside the Lines written by Maud Hickey and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music Outside the Lines is an informative and practical resource for all who are invested in making music composition an integral part of curriculum. Author Maud Hickey addresses the practical needs of music educators by offering both a well-grounded justification for teaching music composition and also a compendium of useful instructional ideas and classroom activities. Hickey begins with a rationale for teachers to begin composition activities in their own classrooms, with a thoughtful argument that demonstrates that all music teachers possess the skills and training needed to take children along the path toward composing satisfying musical compositions even if they themselves have never taken formal composition lessons. She also addresses some of the stickier issues that plague teaching music composition in schools such as assessment, notation, and technology. Most importantly, she introduces a curricular model for teaching composition, a model which provides an array of composition activities to try in the music classrooms and studios. These activities encourage musical and creative growth through music composition; while they are organized in logical units corresponding to existing teaching modules, they also offer jumping off points for music teachers to exercise their own creative thinking and create music composition activities that are customized to their classes and needs. As a whole, Music Outside the Lines both successfully reasons that music composition should be at the core of school music curriculum and also provides inservice and pre-service educators with an essential resource and compendium of practical tips and plans for fulfilling this goal.
