Opis

The Teaching of Instrumental Music, Fifth Edition, introduces music education majors to basic instrumental pedagogy for the instruments and ensembles commonly found in the elementary and secondary curricula. It focuses on the core competencies required for teacher certification in instrumental music, with the pervasive philosophy to assist teachers as they develop an instrumental music program based on understanding and respecting all types of music. Parts I and II focus on essential issues for a successful instrumental program, presenting first the history and foundations, followed by effective strategies in administrative tasks and classroom teaching. Parts II, III and V are devoted to the skills and techniques of the Woodwinds, Brass and Percussion, and String instruments. The Teaching of Instrumental Music is viewed as the complete reference for the beginning instrumental teacher, commonly retained in a student's professional library for its unique and comprehensive coverage.
