Dr. Carol Krueger's Summer Literacy Workshops

Developing Independent Musicians

Fredericksburg VA
July 20 - 22, 2022
 
ABOUT THE EVENT
Helping singers become musically literate is central to the school and church choral curriculum. While there is much agreement about why we should teach sight singing, there is less agreement about how we should teach those skills. Are we teaching students to be independent musicians or savvy symbol decoders?

This session will present real-world concepts to implement a sound before symbol approach to teaching tonal literacyan approach that will help students learn to read music from the inside out. To aid the development of aural-oral tonal skills, a sequence of vocal pitch exercises will be presented in a graphic form that can be utilized in the choral rehearsal. Specific techniques for developing tonal and melodic reading readiness, literacy, audiation, musical memory, dictation, improvisation, elementary composition, and application of tonal and melodic literacy skills to choral literature will be addressed.

J.W. Pepper is proud to provide the digital materials for this workshop!
