Welcome to our first "playing" full band rehearsal. Last rehearsal we had a lot of fun doing warm up activities. Today we are starting up. There are still some "warm up activities" to do though. There is a LOT to do, and only 75 minutes to do it all, so we are going to have to purposeful and stay on track to get it all done.
You will walk in to recordings of "Be Still, My Soul" and "Appalachian Folk Dance" our two teacher selected pieces. You will sign in on the sign in sheet and take your seat in band. (click on the names of the pieces for audio recordings)
1) PACK and Band! (In groups)
When I am speaking you are listening.
When you are speaking I am listening. We never speak over each other
If you are playing an instrument, I promise to listen and/or play with you.
If I am playing, you should be listening, or playing along with me.
