Teaching Musicianship in the High School Band

This book provides a broad curriculum or guide for directors emphasizing music as a fine art or cultural, aesthetic study. Through its presentation of lecture and resource materials including the teaching of timbre, structural elements, form, styles and performance practice, it provides justification for including the band program as a core curriculum subject. The text also presents musical examples of varying levels of difficulty from the band repertory which offer an excellent source for quality programming.Labuta, Joseph A. is the author of 'Teaching Musicianship in the High School Band' with ISBN 9781574630237 and ISBN 1574630237.
