Lecture

St Paul: Brady Educational Center 111

  Douglas Orzolek, Matthew George

World music is often misrepresented in the instrumental music ensemble due to the lack of resources available to educators as well as the problems connected to the authenticity of the existing repertoire and arrangements. This course will explore the theoretical perspectives that can help music educators develop a world-inclusive instrumental music program. It will also offer students the opportunity to discover and contemplate original music for bands and orchestras from all over the world. The goal of the course is to help music educators consider how an inclusive approach to instrumental pedagogy can enrich and expand the opportunities provided by performing and rehearsing global musics.
