Fantasy Camp

February 2010 Volume 13, Number 2

GROUP PUBLISHER Sidney L. Davis sdavis@symphonypublishing.com

or about $4,500, you can participate in a Major League Baseball sanctioned “fantasy camp” with former and current major league baseball heroes and champions. This experience provides the dedicated camper/baseball enthusiast with the thrill of being coached by some of the all-time great players, along with an opportunity for photographs, autographs, and the chance to play real games with the pros. There is even a Baseball Fantasy Camp Directory to help you choose to attend a camp with your favorite American League or National League team, as they all offer these exciting opportunities. Now, imagine if you could choose from your favorite “major league” orchestra players, pack up your bassoon and head off to camp to play a concert, have your violin case signed, or get a photo with an “all-pro” conductor. This vision has become a reality, according to the January 28, 2010 edition of The Baltimore Sun, as the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra has introduced an academy for adult amateurs that allows them to spend a week honing their skills with professional players. At a cost of $1,650, this appears to be a bargain, especially when compared to comparable baseball camps. The benefits of this type of “camp” are multifold, as it “Imagine if you brings in musicians who may not always have the opportunity could choose from to perform with players who are better than themselves, and your favorite “major provides great encouragement to further improve their skills. league” orchestra The ardent amateurs have the opportunity to immerse themplayers, pack up selves in music making for a week and to train and perform alongside some of the best players in the country.

If an orchestra can attract 120 amateur musicians for a weeklong session, it will generate a significant amount of capital for their ensemble. In addition, the goodwill and publicity that this type of activity can generate could help to increase audiences for classical concert music. At the school level, there is no doubt that having a guest artist or group come to perform with an ensemble is an uplifting experience and provides the students with new targets to aim for. There are many classical and jazz musicians, local orchestras, bands, and ensembles who make themselves available for clinics and performances with school groups, and who are bound to leave the students with a new-found enthusiasm for music...

For more information, visit www.musicforall.org.

Technology Institute for Music Educators Conference

he TI:ME National Conference 2010 will be held in conjunction with the New Jersey Music Educators Association Conference. The event takes place February 18-20 at the East Brunswick Hilton and Towers, Brunswick, N.J. Musician and music educator Don Muro will present the keynote address. The conference will offer lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on experiences on a variety of topics in music technology for all levels of music education including a variety of software applications, teaching resources, internet resources, and digital audio. There also will be music performances utilizing music technologies for winds, keyboards, and other electronic instruments. For more information, visit www.ti-me.org.

First of all, thank you very much for the excellent publication that SBO is. I look forward to it every month and read it cover to cover. Secondly, thank you for you synopsis of this year’s Midwest Clinic, which, in my opinion, pointed out the strengths of the move. I realize that your space is not to criticize and you did throw a bone to the critics of the move in the beginning of the article, but I have to admit that in my opinion listing access to restaurants and food as a strength is a stretch. Gaining overpriced, bland, convention center food and losing the outstanding diverse options that the Hilton’s and surrounding areas’ restaurants provide was a significant loss. The ease of eating breakfast while walking to the Hilton from your hotel, ducking out after the afternoon sessions, eating a great meal, and coming back for the evening concert, was all lost. Coming back for the evening concert cost you a 15-dollar cab ride. This year was like the convention was in a bubble tethered to the earth, with ease of access, parking, and space. In my opinion, that was what was gained. What was lost was much more. Dave Cooper Director of Bands Wilson High School West Lawn, Pa.

Online Survey Results

Best Communities for Music Education

his year marks the NAMM Foundation’s 11th annual Best Communities for Music Education (BCME) Survey, a nationwide search for communities whose programs exemplify a strong commitment to music education. Established in 1998, BCME recognizes and celebrates schools, their administrators, teachers, board members, parents, and students for their support and commitment to music education. The program also celebrates communities and schools that have set a goal to provide continuing music education to all students. The 2010 survey began on Thursday, January 14, 2010 and will remain open through March 12, 2010. Each school district or community is allowed to fill out one survey and it must be completed by a school administrator and/or teacher who has access to school and district demographic and budgetary information. The NAMM Foundation will announce the BCME final roster in early May 2010. The survey can be completed by visiting the NAMM Foundation Web site at www.nammfoundation.org.

SBOTechnology:Virtual

Music Instruction

Today’s K-12 Virtual Music Instruction

nother creative alternative to our education delivery system is changing instruction profoundly. Virtual instruction through the Internet is steadily growing in acceptance and popularity. Colleges have long utilized distance learning through expensive high speed T-1 Internet connections, but improvements in technology, hardware costs, and Internet access

have created expanded opportunities across the entire education spectrum. BY JOHN KUZMICH, JR.

The national organization for virtual instruction, iNACOL (the International Association for K-12 Online Learning, www.inacol.org) reports that virtual instruction represents a diverse cross-section of K-12 education from school districts, charter schools, state education agencies, non-profit organizations, research institutions, corporate entities and other content and technology providers. For example, 45 of the 50 states, plus Washington, D.C., have statewide full-time on-line schools. High school reform and redesign is taking place with 57 percent of public secondary schools in the U.S. providing on-line classes. For more supporting info, go to the supplemental Web site listed at the end of this article. Virtual instruction is a positive catalyst in fine tuning K-12 instruction in most subjects, including music, without competing with or disrupting the public school emphasis on performing groups. Areas of instruction can include AP music theory, ear training, music history, contemporary music, composition and arranging, keyboard, and other enrichment courses. Highlighted here are three schools and how they make virtual instruction successful: the Virtual High School Global Consortium; the Insight School of Colorado; and Pennsylvania Distance Learning Charter School. All three are different, but each has well established music courses within the virtual learning framework.

Virtual High School Global Consortium Dr. John Kuzmich Jr. is a veteran music educator, jazz educator and music technologist with more than 41 years of public school teaching experience. He is a TI:ME-certified training instructor and has a Ph.D. in comprehensive musicianship. As a freelance author, Dr. Kuzmich has more than 400 articles and five textbooks published. As a clinician, Dr. Kuzmich frequently participates in workshops throughout the U.S., Europe, Australia, and South America. For more information, visit www.kuzmich.com.

12 School Band and Orchestra, February 2010

The Virtual High School Global Consortium is a pioneer in on-line course design and instruction for teachers and on-line education for high school students. Designed to supplement a school’s curriculum with online courses, Virtual High School (VHS) is a non-profit collaboration of high schools, teachers and students. It partners with schools to provide rigorous, student-centered online courses that help expand vs. replace existing curriculum options. Members of the VHS collaborative include over 11,902 enrolled students, 644 member schools and more than 400 teachers in 31 U.S. states and 34 countries. After 13 years, they have learned what works and what doesn’t. Many schools don’t have enough students to offer AP and enrichment classes, so VHS offers music classes to meet this need. They don’t compete with public schools, but supplement and augment the curriculum with virtual instruction. Most VHS students are doing courses at their school on a T1 connection or from home where they have high-speed connections. Each class includes students from many different states and countries. All VHS courses have a maximum of 25 students. Students also like to share their work on Facebook and YouTube. Their teachers are certified in their specific discipline, and also complete a VHS professional development program before they can create or teach courses. VHS offers five music courses and every class includes a substantial student project: • American Popular Music includes three large group projects. Students analyze a blues song and determine its category characteristics. They watch a video on the history of Rock and Roll and strategize as to what they could have done in the late ‘50s to keep

Nuts and Bolts of V.I. Success At VHS, playing back audio examples is easy to do, as long as one has consistent bandwidth connections to ensure audio and video quality. Configuring and monitoring student music software on workstations is not an issue because everything is done online. All work is done digitally, from synthesizer to computer, so no microphone adjustment is necessary. Courses do not involve transferring large files because homework files are generally kept to two minutes or less and are quickly and easily uploaded via Blackboard. Starting in spring 2010, VHS will use Noteflight for all of their music classes. VHS supports both the PC and Mac platforms.

Insight School of Colorado

public high school in Colorado. It is tuitionfree for Colorado residents and is made possible through a partnership between the Julesburg School District and Insight, Inc. The School of Colorado is only for students within that state. However, there are other schools within Insight’s network, also specific to each state’s residents, in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, California, Minnesota, Wisconsin. ISCO may be the right option for students who: • have a part-time job, • choose home schooling and want to spend more time with family, • live in rural or remote areas that are far from the nearest brick-and-mortar school, • want to progress through course work more quickly, ·• or need extra time to focus on certain subjects. Insight School of Colorado encourages and supports parental involvement in all aspects of a student’s education. Parents are routinely included in all announcements and the distribution of student-specific information such as weekly progress reports. In addition, all parents have special credentials so that they can log into the learning

management system and view real time information about their student including current grades, attendance and time on task, assignments due and submitted, grades and feedback on specific assignments, teacher and office announcements, and schedules for virtual classroom sessions and teacher office hours. All tools, including the learning management system, virtual classroom, and email systems used by ISCO students, are password protected and, thus, not accessible by the general public. ISCO incorporates music technology into five classes. The most enjoyable aspect of using music technology in a virtual classroom is being able to see and hear finished students works. A creative way to assess music technology and make it fun at the same time is to poll through Elluminate by posting pictures; post YouTube links; and use audio examples through the link/share function of Elluminate. To help their virtual instruction more dynamic, ISCO set up a Facebook Page for Insight School of Colorado, and some students have set up a Facebook Group. This helps maintain a sense of community and creates an online space in which students, parents, teachers and staff can

the golden age of Rock and Roll alive. They do a group analysis of social protest songs and the role those songs play in American society today. • Music Listening & Critique: Students create their own concert and then review it. There is a team leader and each student takes on a specific aspect of the concert. • History and American Pop Music: This course includes three group projects that ask students to prepare interviews or to look at and analyze Musicals or movies and figure out the relevance of those to the decade in which they were written. • Fundamentals of Music Composition: The students create group compositions. This four-week project rotates leaders in the group. They select a poem and create a four-part choral melody and harmonies. • Music Composition: Students do a three-week group project composing a piece of music together to the lyrics of a poem. One of Gordon Duckel’s students in Music Composition created an amazing, original composition for his final project. Follow the Web link at the end of article to learn more. Beginning in the fall 2010, VHS will be offering AP Music Theory for the first time.

PA Distance Learning Charter School PA Distance Learning Charter School is a K-12 public charter school in Pennsylvania. Their public Web site is www.

padistance.org. Students are enrolled full-time because under PA cyber charter school law, schools are not permitted to offer dual enrollment. Average class size is 20-25 students. Students are required to attend live-learning sessions with their teacher and peers for all classes once or twice a week, depending on the subject. Additional live-learning sessions are available for students to work one-on-one or in small groups with their teacher and peers. Ninety-five percent of their curriculum is

online. They use Tritone Music software for both Mac and PC. They use Angle Learning as our course delivery system and Wimba for their live learning session software, which uses both synchronous and asynchronous instruction. In an effort to offer a well-rounded educational experience for students at home, PA Distance Learning Charter School has added art and music classes to their course offerings. Music is a requirement of the Pennsylvania Department of Education. One particularly creative innovation of this virtual school is that they use a virtual keyboard so student can practice keyboard skills without a keyboard in their home and incorporate it into their 2nd-grade, 4th-grade, 6thgrade and high school curriculum. Assessment for online courses is handled nicely. The courseware shows how much time students spent in each activity page and gives scores on every activity. This helps the teacher provide custom planning and helps monitor student activity, so the teacher can tell if a student is completing the tasks correctly. The sequencer also records playing activities, so instructors can hear students playing and monitor their progress while learning to play with the virtual keyboard. There are offline worksheets and virtual assessments that can be used for differentiated instruction.

Closing Comments Virtual instruction is becoming more accessible, regardless of where a student resides. The available courseware can be a valuable supplement to one’s music education, going far beyond the resources of traditional instruction. With the efforts of iNACOL, this area of instruction is developing into a formidable resource that is benefiting students and teachers globally, from K-12 to college. It is also a growing preference for teacher recertification. Let’s not underestimate the benefits of virtual instruction or limit and restrict ourselves by ignoring it. A bright future is emerging and music technology is lighting the way.

Dr. Tim says, “It’s always interesting to observe the difference in the momentum of the ensemble when students play a work by Stephen Melillo. There is a definite ‘connection’ to his music that lifts the performer to a new level of expression.” And... these Musical journeys are supported by effective Teaching Tools and Stephen’s direct support. “Melillo is to wind music what Beethoven was to the symphony orchestra... Superlative musical craftsmanship and inspiring to hear.” Marvin Sosna, Music Critic. “Every September I ask my 6th graders if they’ve ever heard a concert band. They roll their eyes. Then I play Melillo. After the applause and cheering, I ask if they’ve ever heard a band sound LIKE THAT. They shake their heads. I ask, “Why not?” “Because we never played music LIKE THAT!” I say, “Well, you’re going to now!” And we’re off! You just need to give them something meaningful to care about -- like your music.” Judy Voois, M.S. Teacher, Westchester, PA

Through ongoing improvements in material selection, manufacturing processes, uncompromising quality control and its proprietary computer testing system, the company has provided its customers with the “perfect pair” of drumsticks and mallets. All Vic Firth sticks are inspected and re-inspected at each operation to ensure the highest quality product. From the sawmill, only the finest logs are cut into squares and dried to an exact moisture content in kilns under closely monitored conditions, which prevents stress, cracks and warping. The squares are doweled and then “ground” into drumsticks on center-less grinders – an approach that maintains the greatest consistency at the highest levels of dimensional tolerance. After finishing and labeling, the sticks are rolled again for straightness, hand-sorted for color consistency and then sent through a proprietary computer pairing system. The exclusive process measures the weight, pitch and density of each stick and compares the variables to the characteristics of hundreds of other sticks. Pairs are then matched to the closest possible tolerances, resulting in two drumsticks that are perfectly matched for optimum balance, sound and feel. No other stick manufacturer in the world offers this value-added service.

Web site: www.nemusicpub.com Northeastern Music Publications Inc. is the young band specialist. All its music is for grades one and two. Music can be played by both large and small ensembles with a full rich sound. All of its music is written by and/ or edited by music educators. It is fun to play and each grade level is written within guidelines so a grade one composition can be played in the first year. Available for numerous instruments, Notes & Strings flashcards have been on the market since 1986. The flashcards were designed by a music teacher to help students learn note reading and fingering in an easy and fun way, and to help students learn the names of the actual notes they are playing instead of finger numbers. They are colorful, durable, easy to read, and they work. Here’s what some customers have to say about Notes & Strings flashcards: “My students’ sight reading improved quickly.” “They worked out great! I’m a (33-year-old) beginner and was spending too much time referring to my fingering chart instead of focusing on playing the pieces of music. It took a couple of weeks, but I now know all the fingerings and notes by heart!”

“My son used his flashcards to learn the songs his teacher assigned at school. His teacher was very impressed.” “I highly recommend this great quality merchandise.” Check Web site for teacher discounts.
