7th Grade To Do List

Posted on 10:33 PM by Awtrey Orchestra

All students need to be practicing the following:

  1. Goblin Dance---the entire piece must be memorized...cellos need a lot of work on just playing the opening ostinato several times without stopping
  2. Secret Agent--violins need to work on their melody sections....intonation especially in the 1st violins......2nd violins just need more confidence in your playing (use more bow--play it LOUD AND PROUD)
  3. Finale--Coda, especially at 54 to the end....brush stroke on the 8th notes and make sure you are only loud when you have the melody (THIS IS YOUR SMART MUSIC ASSIGNMENT)
  4. Brewster Bears--55 to the end....practice this section slowly gradually getting faster for cleanliness (this means you can hear every note)
Try listening to the recordings on a previous blog post so that you know what these pieces are supposed to sound like.
