Book A Course in Band Literature Based on a Standard Repertoire Developed from the Opinions of Selected Collegiate and Secondary School Band Directors

Download or read book A Course in Band Literature Based on a Standard Repertoire Developed from the Opinions of Selected Collegiate and Secondary School Band Directors written by Carol M. Hayward and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The issue of literature selection for performing ensembles is of critical importance for band directors in the schools with many authorities agreeing that the repertoire chosen for study is the curriculum for these classes. Preservice professionals and less experienced directors of wind bands may lack skills for determining the quality of materials chosen for study, as well as knowledge of standard literature for these ensembles. For this study, a survey group of collegiate directors of bands was selected on the basis of their expertise in wind literature. Most other studies on repertoire for wind bands have employed random selection methods to choose survey respondents. These selected participants were asked to respond to a survey concerning standard literature for band and the criteria for identifying quality in band literature. They were also asked to nominate high school band directors whose opinions they respect on the topic of repertoire selection. These recommended directors were asked to complete a similar survey. The survey respondents included 83 directors from both the collegiate and high school levels who teach in all six regions of the College Band Directors National Association. The respondents exhibited a wealth of experience in the field with most indicating that they had twelve or more years of teaching experience. The ultimate goal of the project was to construct a syllabus for a course in wind literature that would include the results of this research. The course builds upon the concerns expressed and recommendations derived from the review of literature, as well as the recommendations of the survey respondents. The survey identified 24 grade III-VI works from the standard literature of the wind band that through study and analysis would provide insight for determining criteria of quality in wind literature. In addition, a list of criteria for determining quality in music was substantiated for use as a catalyst for discussion in the class and to serve as a basis for students to develop their own criteria for determining quality in music, especially the quality of less familiar works that have not yet entered the body of standard literature.

Book The Conductor s Legacy

Book excerpt: What would you ask the leading band directors of our time in a one-on-one conversation? Paula A. Crider, a seasoned and distinguished band director in her own right, shares the wealth of knowledge gleaned from her interviews of the extraordinary personalities who have changed the landscape of the wind band world in this remarkable book. With insight and clarity of thought, she asks the probing questions that prompt stories of talent, work, sacrifice, ingenuity, bravery, and determination. These pioneering and innovative conductors share their concept of band sound, views on score marking, advice to music majors and young band directors, thoughts on how to advance the wind band genre, the elements of their musical success, and much more about the art and craft of conducting a band. In calling forth these thoughts, the author inspires these leaders of the wind band profession to remind us all not only of where we have come from, but also provide a stirring handoff to us and to future generations.

Book The American Wind Band

Download or read book The American Wind Band written by Richard Kent Hansen and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguments on the hierarchy of the cultivated tradition's values and those of the vernacular tradition emerge in mid-nineteenth century American society. Departures from long established potpourri programming practices whereby the cultivated and vernacular traditions coexist arise in the middle and late twentieth century. Still, wind band conductors adapt and sustain potpourri programming concepts into the twenty-first century, fostering compositions that meld varied traditions. Reasons for these reactions and responses are discussed.
