List
ening Excerpts to Develop
Band Musicianship is a
resource that can sit
near your workstation for
ease and speed. I feel
listening has been a
great benefit to my
students. I have spent a
lot of time attempting to
be more efficient, and I
want to share the fruits
of my labor with others.
Incorporate listening
excerpts into your
teaching, and you and
your students will
benefit greatly.
—Jim Childers
Providing great listening
models for band students
can be an incredibly
efficient and effective
way to convey musical
concepts—provided
directors have a library
of well-organized
recordings that catalog
everything from
expressive styles
(“Heroicâ€) to
technical issues
(“Double-Tonguingâ
€). With this
essential book, Jim
Childers does the hard
work of classifying the
top wind band recordings
to provide efficient
excerpts for just the
right concept. Imagine
teaching students to do a
lifting release. If they
heard members of
“The
President’s
Own†in one of
their amazing recordings,
students can be
enlightened and inspired.
With added coaching from
the director, students
will have a shortened
trip to improved
performance. In this
resource, Childers
collects hundreds of
quality listening
excerpts into tables and
categorizes them both by
instrumentation and by
characteristics such as
expressive elements,
articulations, tempo, and
more. This book helps
directors be efficient in
using small, but
effective, listening to
develop students’
musicianship—and
is particularly helpful
in a distance learning
environment. When
considering how much time
directors spend in
rehearsals trying to
describe and redefine the
musical effects they
desire, words and their
connotative meanings
often fall short and fail
to produce what a
director hopes to hear.
But providing students
the opportunity to listen
to great bands playing
those desired elements
from within great pieces
of music can, and will,
improve musicianship and
inspire students! Jim
Childers is Director of
Bands at Marion (IL) Jr.
High School, where he
directs all band
activities in grades six
through eight. He has
directed bands since
1991, at Marion Jr. High
School since 2002 as well
as Highland High School
and Mt. Vernon Township
High School. He earned
his bachelor’s and
master’s degrees
in music education at
Southern Illinois
University–Carbond
ale, studying trombone
with Dr. Robert Weiss. He
has guest conducted many
camps, including ISYM at
the University of
Illinois, and has been
invited to present at
several conferences,
including The Midwest
Clinic.

How
choir members listen
directly impacts the
quality of their music
making. Listening
Awareness is a practical
book that guides choral
singers—and
members of any music
ensemble—to become
more aware of their own
sound as well as the
sound of their ensemble.
The goal is to help
musicians take ownership
of the sound they create
so singers and musicians
learn to provide
effective feedback to
improve the sound of the
entire ensemble. Author
Anthony
Bernarducci’s
approach is simple:
Students need to be
taught to accurately hear
musical concepts before
they can apply them in
their own music making.
He provides a practical
and pedagogical approach
to concepts such as tone,
balance, form, and
texture. He also includes
exercises that apply
aural concepts to style
and nuance of historical
and contemporary
literature—always
recommending suggested
repertoire, composers,
and recordings for each
style period. Other
topics in Listening
Awareness include the
different levels of
listening, the impact of
seating position on
sound, strategies for
starting a new work, and
the characteristics of
harmony and melody.
Finally, Listening
Awareness includes
reproducible worksheets
to assist with many of
the exercises. States
Bernarducci, “Our
ability to listen,
evaluate, and transform
will need to be
constantly sharpened
throughout our careers,
our students’
abilities are no
exception to this
need.†Anthony
Bernarducci is Assistant
Professor of Music at
Clemson University, where
he conducts the
Men’s Choir and
mixed chamber choir
Cantorei. He also teaches
courses in music theory
and composition.

In
this sixth book of the
series, the authors
builld upon the lower
junior stage, and use a
similar modular format.
Designed to extend skill
acquisition in
performance, improvising
and composing, listening
and appraising, and
notating music, pupils
are challenged by
incresingly demanding
musical materials. At the
same time there is an
emphasis on pupils
acquiring knowledge and
expertise of the deep
structures of a range of
music, and a greater
acknowledgement of
musical purpose and
context. Attuned to the
National Curriculum
experiences, particular
features of this book
are: a consolidation and
deepening of vocal and
instrumental techniques
and performance * an
integrated approach to
improvising and
composing, combing skills
in listening and
appraising, knowledge and
understanding * a module
focusing on aural
observation,
representation, recording
and notation of sound *
an active, analytical and
frequently physical
approach to listening and
appraising * a focus on
music in its social and
historical context in
relation to dance.

The
Listening to
Music series
actively engages children
in listening to music so
that they can perform it
and compose it
themselves. Each pack
comprises a visually
exciting book, a CD of
all the recordings, and
aCD-ROM of interactive
whiteboard activities and
printouts.
The
book brings together
music from China, West
Africa, India, South
America and Europe
— an eclectic mix
of traditional,
historical and
contemporarymusic.
Through the activities,
children recognise and
use the building blocks
of music: long and short
sounds, high and low,
loud and quiet, fast and
slow. They then perform
their own versions of
some of the recordings
andtheycompose others
— always listening
perceptively to their own
and others
music.
Teachers
will find this title a
useful accompaniment to
Music Express Years 1 and
2 and and an enjoyable
source of
alternativeactivities for
their primary music

soundscape ecology meets

on the sound art, which

“Th
e Listening,” written
by Grammy-nominated
composer Cheryl B.
Engelhardt in December
2017 for VOICES 21C under
the artistic direction of
André de Quadros, draws
its inspiration from Dr.
Martin Luther King Jr.'s
impactful 1967 speech,
“Beyond Vietnam: A Time
to Break Silence.” This
dynamic, emotion-filled
piece expresses King's
call to end societal
silence. The rhythmic
elements in the piece are
derived from the poetic
nature of King's speech.
The inclusion of a
children's choir,
inspired by the Parkland
school shooting and
subsequent protests,
symbolizes the disruption
of childhood peace by
violence. Notably, the
virtual collaboration,
featuring Donzaleigh
Abernathy, Dr. King's
goddaughter, emphasizes
the song's contemporary
relevance in addressing
social issues, and was
featured in PEOPLE.
Premiered live at the
Massachusetts Music
Educators Conference in
2018 by VOICES 21C, and
digitally released during
Black History month in
2021, “The Listening”
stands as a profound
anthem for breaking
silence and to foster
positive change.

Take
a rollicking ride to
Snowflake County-a place
where Christmas
celebrations have become
so extravagant they
threaten to over shadow
the simplicity of
Christmas'true meaning.
It seems the only one who
understands the secret of
Jesus' simple birth is
little Suzy Hallmark-but
no one is listening. It
will take a series of
crazy mishaps during the
community's annual
seasonal program before
the noise stops and
everyone realizes that
Christmas isn't about how
brightly lights and
decorations shine-it's
about Jesus, the light of
the world. Christy Semsen
has once again combined
her tuneful songs and
clever dialogue with a
strong spiritual theme in
this delightful musical
that is as contemporary
as today's headlines.
Daniel Semsen's sparkling
accompaniment tracks
feature musical styles
that range from pop to
rock to rap and polka.
(There are even country
line dancing angels and
tap dancing wise men!) A
full-color Teacher's
Resource Kit and a
performance IVD are
available, providing all
the production help
you'll need. In addition
to long-sleeve and
short-sleeve T-shirts,
you can also purchase Fun
Paks for your choir to
use in performance and
keep as a souvenir. Your
children and congregation
are going to love their
visit to Snowflake
County, where the secret
is out: Christ is the
center of Christmas!
