What a great week Grade 7 Band!
You should feel confident as we are reviewing the material covered in Band 6. Please practice pages 2-4 in your Traditions of Excellence Book 2. Your daily warmup routine should include 10 minutes of technique focusing on the Concert Bb Scale sheet (scale, arpeggio, ascending/descending thirds, expanding intervals,relative minor scale, and scale masters 1&2).
I encourage all students to practice along with the following fantastic resource (especially for Brass players- trumpet, french horn, trombone, baritone) http://www.bandmatetuner.com/
Students should practice 30 minutes 3-4X each week outside of class time in order to develop the muscle memory needed to play a musical instrument. Your goal is to be ready to complete the "White" band karate playing test during the next band class.
Next week is PE and masterclass. Please note, we will have some instrument specialists coming in to masterclass to help students learn specific techniques pertaining to their instrument.
