Perspective

A Focused Approach

T

echnological advances are being made at such a dizzying pace that it takes a significant amount of time and energy to stay current with the latest trends. Maintaining a deep understanding of all of the innovations that are affecting our profession is nearly impossible, except for maybe those who happen to be full-time technology teachers. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of software programs that could be used effectively in school music programs for notation, recording and sequencing, marching, tuning, grading, and much more. In the publishing field, we, too, have spent significant resources on technology to make this magazine available in multiple formats, including digital, on the Web, and through e-newsletters. Accessibility is key, which is why you can now take advantage of our digital magazine from virtually anywhere in the world. Forwarding articles is a cinch, and much of our content can be e-mailed and shared with the “If you type click of a button. Also, researching past articles on virtually any topic pertinent to a specific field of interest is a piece of ‘music festivals’ cake. Yet, when it comes to simplicity, the print edition often into Google, trumps these newer, more sophisticated offerings. Hardware is also changing at an equally rapid rate. One you will find challenge this causes is simply determining the best time 12 million hits.” to jump in and make a purchase. Whether to wait three months for the next, more powerful model or purchase today at a discounted rate can be a confounding dilemma. Determining the best tools for implementation in the band room can be a challenge, as well. There has been a movement towards the integration of hardware that can be utilized for many different applications. Now, instead of having a separate tuning device, recording unit, e-mail device, camera, and many other applications, hardware such as tablet computers, iPhones, iPads, and other electronic devices can often do a decent job as an all-in-one product. However, dedicated devices are often superior in whichever area they serve as they are designed and configured exclusively for a particular task. Their functions may be accessed more quickly and manipulated more easily with just the turn of a knob as opposed to pulling up software, waiting for it to load, and then operating the unit. For example, an iPhone makes a great tuning device, but having a clip on tuner on-stage or on the marching field would often provide a much more effective solution. This issue of SBO could also be considered with regard to the question of ease of use, accessibility, and centralized location for a wealth of information. If you know what resources you are looking for, then “Googling” could suit you just fine. However, if you type “music festivals” into Google, you will find 12 million hits, and most of them have nothing to do with school music. However, this simple-to-use SBO guide, whether in print or online, is certain to provide you with a wealth of resources and, more importantly, just what you are looking for…

HeadLines NAMM Seeks Best Communities for Music Ed

A

mid a backdrop of arts education budget cuts, The NAMM Foundation has announced that it will continue its effort to recognize schools across the United States that support music education and provide opportunities for children and young people to learn and grow with music.

This year marks the Foundation’s 12th 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 2011 survey will remain open through Friday, March 14, 2011. Each school district or school is allowed to fill out one survey, which must be completed by a school administrator and/or teacher who has access to school and district demographic and budgetary information. The BCME final roster will be announced on May 2, 2011, a date that will commemorate Music Monday, a national celebration of music education and music making. A copy of the survey can be downloaded for review at www.nammfoundation.org.

Ten Years Later, NSO Records Again

U

nder newly appointed music director Christoph Eschenbach, The National Symphony Orchestra is recording for the first time since 2001. The ensemble is taking excerpts of its recent live concerts at the Kennedy Center on January 22-24, which commemorated the 50th anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s inauguration, and releasing them on CD through the Finnish record label, Ondine. The release date is scheduled for May 31. The program includes Peter Lieberson’s “Remembering JFK (An American Elegy),” narrated by actor Richard Dreyfuss, which is part of a highly anticipated, multi-genre celebration of Kennedy’s presidency. Leonard Bernstein’s “Fanfare for the Inauguration of JFK” and Symphonic Dances from “West Side Story,” and Gershwin’s Concerto in F major, with pianist Tzimon Barto, a frequent Eschenbach collaborator, will also appear on the disc. As a special bonus, alongside the upcoming concert, the May album will also include a bonus disc with excerpts of a concert held by the NSO on January 19, 1961, for which the Kennedys were in attendance. Eschenbach has nearly 20 releases on the Ondine label, including performances with the Philadelphia Orchestra and Orchestre de Paris, among others. The conductor’s first NSO recording project is partly supported by the NEA. For more information, visit www.kennedy-center.org/nso.

New Study Says Music Improves Mood

A

recent study suggests that listening to one’s favorite music triggers the release of dopamine, a chemical in the brain that has a key role in setting good moods. The study, reported in Nature Neuroscience, found that the chemical was released at moments of peak enjoyment. Researchers from McGill


From Marching and Concert Bands to Orchestras and Jazz Bands, instrumental groups who take part in a Disney Performing Arts program — whether that’s in a performance or a workshop or festival — share a common bond. And now, Disney Performing Arts is celebrating this bond and commemorating

this once-in-a-lifetime experience with an exclusive badge of honor. So, if you think your instrumental group has Ears for the Arts, then there is no better time to plan your next Disney Performing Arts trip. For more information, contact your travel planner or call toll-free 1-866-715-4095.

New Marching Band movie, “The Sound of Perfection,� in Production

A

new movie about the improbable rise to success of Georgia high school band director Bob Barr and his students is currently in production. This major motion picture is based on a true story and its producers hope to “inspire many of our future musicians and keep the spotlight burning brightly on the critical need for music education,� as well as using proceeds from the film to, “set up a foundation that will raise millions of dollars and help stem the epidemic of school music department cuts across the country.� To learn more, visit www.thesoundofperfection.com.

El Sistema USA to split with NEC It appears that El Sistema USA, the program which aims to bring to the United States the socially uplifting music education movement founded and successfully implemented in Venezuela, is looking for a new home. The project has been housed for the last two years at the New England Conservatory in Boston, Mass., and spearheaded by Mark Churchill, a retired dean of the youth and extension division of the NEC. However, recent votes by the Conservatory’s administration to deny a request for increased funding and staffing have led El Sistema USA to begin hunting for a new place to establish its nationwide headquarters. The NEC will continue to offer a graduate training program for future leaders of music education programs, called the Abreu Fellows program, named after El Sistema founder JosÊ Antonio Abreu.

SBOGuest Editorial: Semi-Retirement

Why Are You Still Here? BY D.L. JOHNSON

D.L. Johnson conducting the combined bands of NMCHS Wind Ensemble and The People’s Liberation Army Women Band of China.

C

an you believe that there are high school band directors who are still teaching band

long after they have retired? In fact, most of those who continue on are still teaching the very school bands from which they retired. How and why would they do this? Classroom teachers might find this surprising, even unheard of, but for music educators, it so happens that this is a fairly regular occurrence. Could it really be possible that some educators love what they are doing?

10 School Band and Orchestra, February 2011

There is a phenomenon in public education that has been around a long time, but is now growing dramatically in many states: music educators, especially high school music teachers, are not fully retiring from the positions they have held for so many years. Instead, you might call it entering “semi-retirement.” The idea is not new, but it is growing in popularity. In my state of California, there are many high school band directors all over the state who are continuing to teach band well beyond retirement. This may turn out to be the one of the few ways school districts feel they can hold on to their elective programs until the financial crises is over. Or it could be they really just don’t want to let go of good teachers who are making a difference in the lives of kids. The process is quite simple. When a teacher reaches retirement age, he or she approaches the school district to see if retirement is a possibility. At the same time, that director requests to continue parttime and hold on to classes and/or programs he or she loves, still has a unique

passion for, and has worked so hard to build over time. In most states, school districts can allow these teachers to work around 1/3 time and still make between $30,000 and $35,000 per year without penalty. This is not an automatic process, because the school district must first want these teachers back, but it does enable school districts to hold on to important educators and the programs they don’t want to lose at a far lower cost. Some school districts are now offering Early Retirement Incentives. Teachers at the top of the pay scale can be offered an ERI and the school districts can hire a new teacher at half the price. However, because many school programs are so complex – especially large music programs –the loss or changing of the instructor may mean years of adjustment. This can take a huge toll on a program, especially in this difficult economic environment. Elective programs often suffer far more than academic courses at budget crunch time, sometimes because high school and middle schools have only one instructor in that area.


Another factor leading to the encouragement of semi-retired teachers sticking around is the new credential laws that have been enacted in many states. These stipulate that all teachers must be credentialed in all subject areas they teach. This has negatively impacted small schools, in particular: where are they going to find these multi-subject credentialed high school band directors who can teach a 150-piece band program and are credentialed to fill out their day teaching Health, Drivers Ed, PE, and so on? Also, what educators would be that excited about teaching music part-time as their full-time job? The above problem is not just for music teachers; it also extends into other areas of specialized education, such as vocational subjects and technical arts. A principal finds this fantastic teacher to instruct an Auto Class, but only offers four classes. Now that same principal has to find something else for this person to teach to fill out the workday, but finds they cannot legally teach anything else. The answer might be bringing semi-re-

tired teachers back to work, as they don’t usually require all of the schedule-filler and related credentials. Aside from the opportunity to keep some income for the director and demand for specialized educators in some school districts, there are other reasons why some retired teachers might keep on teaching. Could it be that they actually love teaching and are not ready to quit? Not only do they have the passion to keep teaching, but many of these educators truly believe that what they are teaching is good for kids. I know this because I’m one of them. I had to slow down a couple of years ago for health reasons, but I didn’t want to quit teaching band. Over the years, I had created a “band monster” that was beginning to overwhelm me, as I was also teaching a full day’s schedule of classes. Perhaps that’s a part of the competitiveness that we as band directors put on ourselves – we want to see our bands improve year after year. Once I retired and began teaching only my jazz band and the large band (marching band in the fall and

wind ensemble in the spring), 2.5 hours a day (plus donated time), my enjoyment of teaching skyrocketed and my health improved. Now I can’t wait to start teaching every morning. Whatever I give extra to the day is my decision. What I work on is what I want to work on: band and only band. I’m drawing retirement and making a small salary at the same time. Although, I have to admit that I give back many voluntary hours a day, but that’s my decision. I can do what I enjoy doing the most, which is conduct music. When parents, students, teachers, or administrators let me know that they feel fortunate that I am still teaching their bands, I tell them how fortunate I feel I can keep conducting their band. I’m the one who truly feels fortunate to still be there working with the best kids in world. I have noticed that there seem to be fewer college-bound students going into education. Unfortunately, I can’t blame them. Everything they see and hear indicates this may not be a good profession to enter into right now. Hiring retired teachers may be the only choice some dis-

tricts will have in the future, especially, if there is a need for a specialized instructor in an area where they have no one to fill it. Many districts have a huge investment in their music programs, and, let’s face it, many bands are built around their directors, which means those shoes are often very hard to fill. My dad retired as a band director at age 57, but immediately went back to work for a private high school. He continued to teach high school band until he was 72. I’m only 58, and he keeps jokingly reminding me I still have 14 years to go to keep up with him. That’s a long time! However, teaching part-time, doing exactly what I want to do, may be just the plan to allow me to equal or beat his career – in terms of longevity. Of course, the school might not want me that long, but you can’t always have everything. So why do I continue to teach? I continue because teaching is my passion. I actually like my job. I guess this makes band both a hobby and a job. I love helping kids create music. The biggest high I get is when those same kids are able to perform at a level well beyond what they ever imagined. I have received many compliments about my passion and dedication for teaching throughout my career, and I just pray people will continue to say similar things in the future, as I continue to teach my “semi-retired” 2.5-hour school day. I’m one of those semi-retired band directors, and loving every minute I continue to be allowed on the podium. And, oh, by the way, I’m taking my bands back to China for their fourth concert tour next year. Apparently retirement doesn’t mean you have to stop.

WE’VE ADDED TO OUR LEGACY . ®

...there’s now three versions to choose from. Wenger pioneered acoustical shell design. Our latest innovation turns one popular acoustical shell into three application- and budget-specific solutions.

Basic

Classic

Select

Legacy Classic has been redesigned for fast and easy set-up and take-down, by one person. Its bottom kicker panel and larger canopy provide better acoustics than its direct competitor. And there are no feet protruding from the front to trip over. Legacy Basic offers the same acoustics in a smaller design at an incredible price. Legacy Select is a new curved-panel design available in any color and luxurious finishes for an appearance as breathtaking as its sound. And maybe best of all, Legacy mobility allows you to acoustically transform almost any space into a performance venue. And when the performance is over, each model goes down easily and nests together compactly. Whether you need to set up in a cafetorium or a recital hall, now there’s a Legacy shell with great acoustics and aesthetics that meets all your performance needs.

off Legacy Acoustical Shells Valid on new orders placed between January 1 and March 31, 2011 and must ship by April 30, 2011. Discount taken from catalog price. Not valid with other discounts.

It is small enough to foster close working relationships, yet large enough to support a symphony and chamber orchestras, symphonic band, wind and jazz ensembles, five award-winning choirs and a fully staged opera. More than 300 performances are given each year by faculty, students and guest artists. Most are free and take place in von Kuster Hall or Talbot Theatre. Highlights of the season include three orchestra concerts featuring student soloists, a gala of opera and musical theatre selections, a choral celebration with all choirs, and the opera, which is Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro in 2011. As well as faculty and students, the popular Friday 12:30 series also features guests from across Canada and around the world. Student compositions, new electroacoustic works and masterclasses are all open to the public. For more information, visit www.music.uwo.ca.

Initially, Kurt’s vision was to produce a limited quantity of professional all-silver flutes, but demand for his unique flutes increased beyond his expectations. The Gemeinhardt line expanded to include midpriced flutes, soon followed by the introduction of entry-level flutes. This laid the ground work for Gemeinhardt to later emerge as the music industry’s largest exclusive manufacturer of flutes and piccolos. Today, the Gemeinhardt Company provides a wide range of instruments for the student to the professional. As the Gemeinhardt family did for four generations, the artisans at Gemeinhardt and our worldwide partners share their expertise, passing on the time honored art of musical instrument making from generation to generation, taking great pride in placing the Gemeinhardt name of every instrument.

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 reinspected 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, handsorted 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.

What’s In Your Bag? “Percussion students should understand from the beginning that the idea that ‘any old stick will do,’ is not only wrong, but hinders a percussionist from obtaining a variety of articulations as other instrumentalists are taught. Your first band purchase should be a stick bag with a minimum of: two pairs of timpani mallets (hard & med. hard); two pairs of keyboard mallets (med. yarn & hard rubber); and a pair of snare sticks (small round bead tip). Each year add more ‘tools’ to your bag and learn to ‘fix’ any performance need!” Eddy Williams Trinity Presbyterian School Montgomery, Ala.
