Large groups (Bands. Choirs, orchestras)
Solos and/or ensemblesSlide3
Why have a prescribed list?
A prescribed music list can exemplify the philosophical foundations of music. Not only do the lists express educational and musical goals, but social and aesthetic values derived from the performance of the music in contests—the development of attributes that are important to perpetuate music in our society
Great resource for teachers to find appropriate literature. This is a good place for new teachers to see what others are doing at contestSlide4
Why have a prescribed list?
The list serves a dual purpose:
1. They identify music which music educators believe should be studied and performed by our students
2. They provide for the development of musical tastes and technical skills which will aid the young of society to become responsive as they grow into mature citizensSlide5
Why have a prescribed list?
The “practical” purpose of the list is to limit the amount of questionable literature being learned and performed by some directors and programs, and to exposed them to selections that are proven
quality literature. Slide6
How often do you update it?
Most states update their lists every 3-5 years. It is important that the
recommendations
come from teachers and not publishers
.
A committee of teachers looks at suggested additions, and changes to the list. Some songs need to be moved from one list to another. It is helpful to have a list of the songs actually performed over the last few years to omit selections.
Some State have a way to play something “NEW” and has not been added to the list, a way to ask permission for the song to be used for the required piece.Slide7
Solo PML Example of grades/levels
The classifications are A, B, and C. Standard Repertoire is the same as Class A
.
Class A
: This category generally contains music of a grade 5 or 6 level. Music in this classification is of a high technical and musical demand requiring musical interpretation and skill from advanced performers. Extremes in range, technical difficulty, key
rhythm,
tempo and style could be present in these selections.
Class B:
This category generally contains music of a grade 3 or 4 level. Music in this classification involves increasing demands of techniques, range, key, rhythm, tempo and style. Introduction to increased interpretation, special techniques and concepts previously learned in the fundamental music program is included.
Class C:
This category generally contains music of a grade 1 or 2 level. Music in this classification contains easier keys, meter, ranges, rhythms, tempos and styles.Slide8Slide9Slide10
