Description
Orchestra Expressions™ equips music educators across all levels with engaging and user-friendly resources designed to address everyday classroom challenges while enhancing the teaching of music. The curriculum aligns with the National Standards for the Arts in Music, ensuring that lessons are crafted to meet these standards from the outset rather than being adapted retroactively. This program emphasizes music literacy and fulfills reading and writing requirements within orchestra classes, employing a unique pedagogy that begins with a "four-fingers-down" approach for each instrument, allowing for the simultaneous development of both hands. Each student book is designed with a vibrant full-color layout featuring clear notation, and it includes online access to 110 accompaniment tracks, historical insights on prominent orchestral composers, a comprehensive glossary of musical terminology, as well as scales and warm-up exercises. Future editions may be produced with black and white interiors, and this title is available through MakeMusic Cloud.
