Kevin Olusola - YouTube - 0 views

  •  
    Kevin Olusola is a cellist who also beatboxes while playing. He is also in the a capella group Pentatonix. His videos are entertaining and musically stimulating. He not only performs his own compositions, but he also creates mash-ups of pop tunes...often performed in a classical style. He bridges the gap between classical and pop music, demonstrating incredible instrumental technique and culturally relevant material...all while beatboxing!

Musical Instruments from Around the World - YouTube - 0 views

  •  
    This is a youtube video made for 3rd graders about music from around the world. I think it would be really easy to have kids make videos like this themselves, so I'm posting it more as an idea to be replicated than to actually use. I think some of the information is slightly inaccurate, but the idea is fantastic

"I don't get it!" Helping those who can't help themselves - musically. « Musi... - 0 views

  • This is good of course, in that it means that music can take flight easily in those who have an ear for it and they can move on quickly to the joy of music-making, both on their own and with others. But this same skill can become a disadvantage when those same students want to move into more complicated repertoire or advanced improvisational music-making. Here, their lack of foundation in the theoretical language of music will impede their progress, and it will be frustrating for already advanced players to stop and ‘go back to the beginning’ to pick up the language and basic theoretical concepts they need in order to move forward with their playing.
  • nd it’s also why it is so important to teach instrumentalists to sing the melodies they play as part of their learning process. This connects their physical response at the instrument and their technical understanding to their innately human ability to express themselves with their singing voice.
  • eep theoretical ideas tied very tightly to some kind of practical knowledge.

  • he First Principle of my Solfa choir workshops is to ‘Use the Ear to Train the Eye’: we
  • never separate the look of something on the page or on the blackboard from the sound of something they already know how to do.
  • After this happens, I then am very strict in applying the Second Principle of my Solfa choir workshops: ‘Stop While You Are Ahead’.
  • Adding one more concept on top of this one – for example modulation to the relative minor, or even to the (!warning!) so-called ‘flat keys’ can immediately burst the delicate bubble of achievement and understanding.
  • Third Principal: ‘Be Kind, but Apply the Second Principle’. While it can be difficult to curb my own enthusiasm for my subject and my happiness at having conveyed something that leads to interesting questions, I do try to restrict myself to giving only very brief answers to further theoretical questions before closing these conversations and moving on to something else that is practical and that I know my students can do.

    An article that discusses finer points in the "Art" of teaching; when students don't grasp a concept. Is it always the teachers fault? Can the student be doing anything differently to help on their end? This article has possible solutions!

    The Making Most of Music practice: Research-Based strategies to Motivate and Empower Students will be used to inform my parents about a valid concern. I teach the steel drum and most students do not have a personal instrument. Therefore, practice time at the pan yard seems as if it takes too much of the students time. If parents are enlightened with this information they may have more of an understanding and appreciation for the amount of practice time spent in the pan yard.
