    This is a wonderful teacher blog with tons of teaching resources and curriculum. This blog has a huge bank of songs by grade level or activity type and feature activities to accompany the songs.

    This is a great resource for discovering new songs to teach. The site allows users to search for short transcriptions by category (ie recorder music, Orff arrangements), alphabetical, or by genre (ie: folk, popular). Music can be saved as .pdf's.

100 Years of Rock Visualized - 0 views

  •  
    This 100 Years of Rock link contains a chronological display of how popular music has evolved.  It provides listening examples for dozens of American genres of music, from rock to country, blues, pop, and countless other sub-genres.  This link would make for interesting conversation with a History of Rock N' Roll class or classes about American music.  I especially enjoyed the listening examples because they give evidence to how much culture has influenced the different styles of American popular music.  I feel that students would very much enjoy this link because the listening examples cater to their interests, especially as the viewer scrolls toward the bottom of the page.

    Admittedly, I'm a total geek for the "old classics", but I find this website absolutely amazing! In about 3 minutes time I was able to locate about a half dozen pieces that I've been looking for at some point or another since I started teaching. I think there are resources that every band director could use here.

    Public Domain town band music library. Would be great for so many things - especially playing marches at MPA that aren't overdone.

    This is another invaluable resource of Public Domain compositions for the Band World. So many of the old marches and waltzes are out of print and difficult to come by, but this website has an extensive list of great works that are all public domain. A great resource not only for finding pieces to play, but also for doing some traditional score study.

    The lessons found here are for integrating popular music study into general music curricula. The lessons are all standards-aligned and are almost entirely historical, cultural, sociological, and musicological in nature. The lessons can also be integrated into social studies curricula. There are many opportunities in all of these lessons for students to embark on music and cultural research to enhance and deepen their understanding of the music they are learning to play/sing/perform.
