This course will teach and reinforce proper hand position, posture, air support, discipline, and teach music theory appropriate for this age. Students will identify sixteenth, eighth, quarter, half, whole notes and rests. Students will perform expressively. Students will be able to critique their own performances and others in a reasonable and intelligent manner. Our goal is to have appropriate tone, articulation, knowledge of theory, and develop discipline by the end of the school year. Students will have opportunities to perform in various groups throughout the year including solo and ensemble, large group festival, marching band, and various concerts.
