Advanced Intermediate Orchestra 1/27/17
Practice tuning at home. With your fine tuners: “righty tighty, lefty loosey”. Tightening the string raises the pitch, and loosening the string lowers the pitch. Start with A-string. Use a tuner or match the pitch with a piano. When you get settled on stage for class this week, see if you can tune yourself and we will come around to check your strings and help you out. Tuning takes practice!
Rhythm A Week Unit 48 again. Practice clapping the rhythm first. This is a tough one.
Essential Elements: 47, 55, 56, 66
Look ahead at pages 16-17. Yay, sixteenth notes!
I want you all to make a clear, annunciated sound/tone this week. Don’t be sluggish! Let’s make some beautiful music.
