Course Description

Provides fifth term of individual private tuba instruction. 欧洲杯决赛竞猜app_欧洲杯足球网-投注|官网s intermediate/advanced-level performance skills at the music major/minor level. Draws repertoire and technique methods from classical traditions. Includes training in performance practice and stylistic interpretation through focus on tone production, technique, applied knowledge, sight-reading, and other aspects of musicianship as applied to the tuba.

Addendum to Course Description

All applied music students are required to attend weekly lessons, attend weekly performance classes, participate in public performance, and complete a music jury. A substantial amount of out-of-lesson practice time is required.

Intended Outcomes for the course

Upon completion of the course students will be able to:

  • Perform intermediate/advanced-solo and intermediate/advanced-ensemble tuba repertoire using an understanding of intermediate/advanced musicianship and performance etiquette.
  • Prepare and rehearse intermediate/advanced-solo and intermediate/advanced-ensemble tuba repertoire for performance using an intermediate/advanced-level understanding of music literacy.
  • Demonstrate stylistic distinctions in intermediate/advanced-solo and intermediate/advanced-ensemble tuba repertoire to accurately interpret music in performance.
  • Demonstrate an intermediate/advanced-level understanding of the tuba to continue to improve as a performer.
  • Meet learning outcomes specific to this project as mutually agreed upon by the student and instructor in advance through a written learning contract, and as appropriate to the credit awarded for this course.

Aspirational Goals
