Beginning Band
- Breathing exercises
- EE Bk. 1 #86-#89 Daily Warm-Ups
- EE Bk. 1 #100-#109, #147 (Woodwinds just work on the first 6 notes, Brass and Percussion work on the whole line)
- Pass off on: Woodwinds- anything I choose #119-130
- Brass and Percussion- anything I choose #147-151
- EE Bk. 1 p.43 m.45-48 Count, clap and buzz the line
- Mickey Mouse March and Waltz of the Weiner Dogs
- Don't forget to work on your solo- you will work with accompanist March 9- last rehearsal before Solo Festival!
* Woodwinds- Be sure to work on going over the break this week. Grip tight and move that thumb!
* Brass- Be sure to practice buzzing to fill up a balloon on the end of your mouthpiece. Keep working on this exercise.
* Percussion- Work on rudiments on p.46-47 (single stroke rolls, double stroke rolls-open-5-7, paradiddles-single-double, flam, flam accent, flam tap.) I'll give you a DVD to use next week.
Don't forget to put in at least 5 days of practice for 30 minutes each this week. It makes all the difference your musical progress and in our band!
Intermediate and Advanced Band
Both bands: practice, practice, practice your solos!! Secondly, practice, practice, practice your pieces of music (a.k.a. Pink Panther, God Bless the USA, etc.) Third, we will be delving further into the books you have. Brush up on your breathing/articulation exercises. There will be a "pop quiz" on a random scale (chosen in class by the instructor). Be prepared!! And, have a great week!!
