7th Grade Orchestra
Posted on 10:06 PM by Awtrey Orchestra
The cello and bass sections will have a quiz everyday this week on Avatar measures 31-38. Please make sure that you practice the fingerings carefully and slowly for exact intonation (how well you play in tune). btw--intonation is the candy word for the week.
The select 1st violins will also have an assessment everyday this week on measures 43-55 in Accents. Make sure you the remember the key signature (G major so low 2 on the "A" and "E" strings) and listen for the patten, which will make these measures easier.
CONGRATS 2ND VIOLINS YOU ARE SECTION OF THE WEEK!!!!!!!! I WILL HAVE A SURPRISE FOR YOU ON FRIDAY, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.CONGRATS 7TH GRADE ON WINNING THE POLL, YOU ALL WILL RECIEVE A POPCORN PARTY IN THE COMING WEEKS.
212 Checklist: We don't stop until it's better than our BEST
For the rest of this week, we will continue polishing Avatar and Accents. Your concert is quickly approaching and we still have at least one more piece to learn. You need to be practicing all of your music so that you don't forget the small details like dynamics, bowings, and articulations. I will be giving pop quizzes on any piece of music randomly and these quizzes will either be by section or entire class. Remember we operate as a class (an ensemble) not individuals so if you cannot play it with other people; YOU CANNOT PLAY IT!!!!!
