- The Three Es: Expectation, Engagement, Efficiency
This is the first episode in our series of music ensemble rehearsal technique and strategies used with the international award-winning Florida State University Percussion Ensemble.
And the best part: It's totally easy to integrate these ideas into your next band, orchestra, chorus, or chamber music rehearsal!
We hope you find a few that make an immediate difference in your sessions, and will have plenty more coming your way over the rest of the season!
This is good stuff. To being a music major and having my background in English Education, there is a good amount of what you discussed that can be tweaked and applied to most any classroom.
Thank you, John and Company, for this fantastic resource! So much wisdom - can't wait for the next episode!
Austin, I miss you 😘
This was great, can't wait until the next one!
Thank you so much! You found it before it actually dropped on social media, lol--let us know what you think about the next ones!
@@floridastateuniversityperc5193 Nice, will do!
This is a very interesting concept for a podcast. As an experienced music educator I always want to find new techniques to improve my practice.
Thank you Keith! We just put it up on Spotify and Facebook, with a new episode coming out every month!
Does your 1st rehearsal take place the 1st week of school and how far in advance do students receive music if you’re playing it all the way through day 1?
First rehearsal is the 2nd week of school. Students get music 1-2 weeks before the first rehearsal.
Thank you so much for checking it out! The next episodes will also talk about how far in advance the group knows what we will be rehearsing, which goes along with expectation for sure!
I’m just curious about the rehearsal technique of efficiency in which you give feedback during the playing. I wanted to know if you think that is as effective on the younger side of ensemble rehearsal for middle school or early high school students. I had previously learned that it is difficult for younger students to take that feedback and remember it in real time while playing. The ability to jump between thoughts that quickly does not come as easily at a young age. Have you ever done in clinics with younger ensembles where you’ve noticed that disconnect?
Hey there! So happy to hear from you! I have found that it is still effective, just more reminders are typically needed during brief stops in playing. And yes, lots of clinics with HS and MS groups of all levels--I've also found that it's somewhat program "cultural," the more consistency students experience the easier it is for them to focus and remember. Plus that can also be pretty fun and funny for them sometimes--which can also reinforce the instruction.
