Band Practicum B

Catalog description

This course is an advanced course for music majors with an emphasis in band education. This course provides the opportunity to more deeply understand and demonstrate the skills students begin to develop in Band Practicum A and more fully implement them as they pertain to teaching in a grades 9-12 school band program. This course will focus more intensely on musical preparedness as well as focus on the administrative issues and philosophy-based decision-making necessary to guide a high school band program and more mature musicians that are beyond the beginning stages of music making. This course will continue the field-based learning initiated in Band Practicum A.
