Download or read book Pitch and Rhythm Bass Clef Diatonic Assorted Meters written by Nathan Petitpas and published by Dots and Beams. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection presents its user with a series of notes on a bass staff in the context of increasingly complex rhythmic material. The pitch material in this book is entirely diatonic with a space left at the beginning of each system in which one can write a key signature. Early chapters use only notes on the staff while subsequent chapters begin to add notes on ledger lines above and below the staff. Each chapter contains two exercises in each of the following time signatures: 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 6/8, 9/8, and 12/8. This gives exercises in 2, 3, and 4 beats per bar in both simple and compound meters. From chapter to chapter the conceptual difficulty of the rhythmic material increases. The exercises in this collection are intentionally aimless, wandering, and difficult to internalize. They resemble standard melodies on the surface but don’t emphasize any particular tonal centre or harmonic movement. They are designed this way for several reasons. In keeping the melodic material as non-specific as possible the door is left open for the materials to be used in conjunction with any number of exercises, something that would be much more difficult with a composition that dictates the harmonic, melodic, and rhythmic phrasing. It also allows the user to read the exercises in any key signature, making this a great tool to help students learn to think in different keys. The unpredictability of these exercises also forces the user to process every note and rhythm as its own event without relying on pattern recognition or melodic and harmonic tendencies to help in figuring out the notes and rhythms. While I absolutely agree that the skill of predicting music’s direction from harmonic and melodic cues is an essential skill for any musician to develop, I think we will all agree that resources for this type of reading practice are already abundant. This collection, on the other hand, is designed to develop the user’s ability to process raw musical data. Once this skill is strengthened and internalized it is my belief that the act of reading more predictable and typically melodic music will be made much easier as the processing of notes and rhythms will be second nature, allowing the musician to focus on musicality. This book is a supplement to practising sight-reading using “real music,” not a replacement; I encourage you to use both. If this material is being used to practice sight-reading, it is encouraged to cycle through the exercises quickly rather than dwelling on a particular exercise for a long period of time. The goal in practising sight-reading is not to learn the material but to develop the skill of reading new material. Some suggestions for how to use this book include: Read each exercise in all 15 key signatures from 7 flats to 7 sharps. Practice key changes by writing in a different key signature for each system. Increase the challenge of the previous exercise by using a metronome on weak beats. For example, instead of putting the metronome click on each quarter-note in 4/4, play the exercise with the metronome giving the second eighth note of each beat, or the last sixteenth note, or beats 2 and 4. Be creative with this one, the possibilities are limitless. Develop independence between hands by playing a repeating pattern in one hand while reading an exercise in the other. Write in articulations, dynamics, bowing, sticking, or fingering for your students to practice. As with any of the Dots and Beams books, the uses for this particular collection are limited only by the imagination of the musician using it. I highly encourage anybody using this book to find as many uses for these exercises as possible.

The only exception is duet #55, which is specific to each instrument.Whether you play these duets with a friend or a teacher, sight reading with a partner provides an incentive for playing each duet without stopping because you don't want to disappoint your partner. Using this simple principle and providing additional tips and advice for improvement, this book addresses a skill so important and so lacking for so many musicians.Stop dreading sight reading-learn the secrets to reading music at first sight accurately every time with help from The Big Book of Sight Reading Duets.

Book excerpt: Concepts of Technique 36 Register studies for Bass Clef Euphonium Pedagogical concepts: Dennis AsKew Music composed by: Eddie Bass INTRODUCTION This book is built on the acceptance of two basic principles, muscle memory and the concept of delineation. This book will not deal with the mechanics and descriptions of how to make a "good" sound, it is merely designed to help the player work on the other components of technique. These etudes are not designed to be an "be all, end all" for practice. They are to be used as a part of a complete practice regime which should include a daily routine, style etudes, and performance materials. These etudes would most likely fall into someone's daily routine. These etudes and the accompanying philosophy surrounding them have been the basis for the development of technique in my studio, and I hope you can use them as well. -- The exercises along with the written material makes this book a great teaching (and practice) package. Michael Moore (Atlanta Symphony) -- I have long been convinced that we need more study materials for euphonium and tuba (and, to be truthful, all instruments) that include specific information to guide students of all ages and levels toward the goals of mastering the technical aspects of playing the instruments, as well as directing them toward the end goal for all musicians, amateur or professional, which is good music making. The numbers and availability of professional artist/teachers of the euphonium and tuba are limited, and in some areas of the world one must travel hundreds of miles to find such an individual for study. Dr. Dennis AsKew has provided both clear instruction and etudes in this text that will allow anyone to be their own teacher in the absence of a professional artist/teacher, as well as a well-structured approach to practicing fundamental aspects of playing that can be utilized by established teachers with their students. I encourage you to give these materials careful examination. The pedagogy is sound and its application is very pragmatic. Jerry A. Young, Ed.D. Professor of Music, The University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire -- I really like the approach Dennis AsKew has taken with his new pedagogical book. He has separated (delineated in his terms) all the components of producing a "consistent" flow of air and allows the "student" to learn how to crawl (slur) properly before he/she learns how to walk and run (articulated). If the student will follow these guidelines diligently, at some point in the process he/she will no longer have to "think" about all these processes, they will become automatic. Unfortunately, most students do not use their air properly, therefore must initially give this a lot of deliberate thought. This book certainly provides the student with materials and philosophy needed to make that giant leap from blowing a horn to making music. I want to congratulate Dennis and thank him for his willingness to share proven techniques he has utilized in his successful approach to teaching the tuba. R. Winston Morris Professor of Music, Tennessee Tech University
Download or read book Sight Reading Trainer written by Robert Kay and published by MusicOnline UK. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sight Reading is a skill in which many people concentrate just on the pitch and forget about the rhythm.Most students focus primarily on getting the notes the correct pitch at the expense of keeping the beat going. However, if you look at the ABRSM marking criteria for a sight reading test, the FIRST thing that is mentioned for a distinction is, “Fluent, rhythmically accurate” (followed by “accurate notes/pitch/key”).Sight Reading Trainer will change the way you sight read. It is not just a series of specimen sight reading tests like you can buy in the ABRSM Specimen Sight Reading Grade Books. The examples in this book are designed to be played with an accompanying audio track which can be downloaded for free at: www.music-online.org.uk/p/sight-readingtrainer.htmlThis will improve your rhythm and fluency when sight reading. Another hindrance to effective sight reading is poor “Piano Geography”. This is the ability to feel your way around the piano without looking at your hands. Be honest - when you sight read, are you continually looking at your hands? It’s something I call, "watching vertical tennis", where your eyes travel up and down between hand and book for virtually every note or chord. No wonder your sight reading is hesitant and lacking fluency.With this in mind, throughout the course there are some “Piano Geography” tests which MUST BE PLAYED WITHOUT LOOKING AT YOUR HANDS.The third factor that will contribute to better sight reading is visualizing the music in your head (especially rhythm) before you even play a note and this includes how to use your preparation time effectively.In an ABRSM exam for example, you are given 30 seconds to prepare. How you use this 30 seconds, is key to effective sight reading. DON'T just start playing from the beginning. Rather, the first thing you should do is get a sense of the key you are in and if you are taking an early Grade (1-2), simply find the hand position for each hand before playing a note. Throughout this course you will also find some “Instant Hand Position or Key Signature Recognition” tests.Then, concentrating on the rhythm, try and visualize in your head how the music should sound, again before you even play a note. This will also include other stylistic markings such as dynamics and articulation. Getting the right pitch is only a small part of what the examiner is looking for. Below each test in this course, there will be hints of details to look out for, before you even play a note.The last thing mentioned in the marking criteria for a distinction is “Confident presentation”. A sight reading test is an assessment on how well you can convey the music as a whole performance, NOT if you can recognise the pitches A, B, C etc - that is a theory exam!!Finally - a word on mistakes. If you do miss a note, DON’T go back and correct it, you’ll only upset the flow and rhythm of the music and this effectively then counts as a 2nd mistake. You can’t erase the first mistake, and the examiner is not interested if you can improve on your wrong note, he wants to hear a performance of the music as a whole, which conveys as best you can, the character of the piece.
