Teaching Music through Performance in Band, Vol. 1 provides theoretical and practical information for directors seeking to help students gain musical mastery.
Divided into three sections, Part 1 examines the various theoretical aspects of music band directors are faced with on a daily basis. This includes music selection, the student learning process, rehearsal design, and student assessment. Part 2 offers practical suggestions for band directors for teaching music during rehearsals, building a band curriculum, and structuring the course for teacher, student, and program success.
Part 3, the nuts-and-bolts Teacher Resource Guides, provides analyses of 100 respected band compositions, Grades 2–6.
Each guide includes information about the composer and the piece, historical background, technical requirements, stylistic considerations, important musical elements, suggested listening, and a guide to selected references. This book is an essential resource for band directors at all levels and is a major contribution to the field.
