IVC Wind Method - A and B

Concert Bb Scale

Star Spangled Banner - Beginning to C

Fight Song - Beginning to B (C if you're ambitious)


Looking ahead to next week? Look at:
- SSB - ALL of it
- Fight Song - ALL of it
- Stand Cheers - #1, #3, #5, #6, #8
- Third Quarter Chant

BE WATCHING FOR ACCIDENTALS (SHARPS, FLATS, NATURALS), COUNT CAREFULLY, AND DON'T FORGET TO USE YOUR FINGERING CHARTS AND PRACTICE CDs!!!!!!!!!!

For now through next Friday (10/25), work very hard on page 24.
#s 119 - 124 are required for class.
Brass is learning lip slurs (changing pitches using the same fingering/slide position WITHOUT tonguing the second note)
Clarinet is learning to utilize the upper register. Embouchure does not change as you press the register(octave) key for the leap of an octave and a fifth, just consistent air flow, and LOTS OF IT!!!

Christmas in Distant Lands-
Beginning to letter B needs to be VERY good. This means working on more than just notes/rhythms. Preferably learn up to letter C. Super-duper over-achievers can certainly tackle to the end of the piece.

Holiday Processional-
Beginning up to measure 22 also needs to be VERY good. Same criteria as previous piece for what that means. Over-achievers may also work to the end on this piece.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, be practicing! I will know if you aren't, and your grade will suffer for it.

For Thursday, please practice:

Wind Methods - A, B, C
Stand Cheers - 1, 5, 6
