VII. Required Course Content and Direction
  1. Course Learning Goals

    Students will:

    1. Perform music repertoire in a choral ensemble environment.
  2. Planned Sequence of Topics and/or Learning Activities

    1. perform appropriate vocal warm-up exercises (vocalizes) at the beginning of rehearsals
    2. practice appropriate musical responses to conducting gestures
    3. examine critically all music repertoire that is to be performed
    4. prepare, rehearse, and subsequently perform all music repertoire with attention to accurate pitch, rhythm, dynamics, and stylistic considerations
    5. apply stylistically accurate phrasing, balance, blend, articulation, vocal techniques, proper diction, etc., in the preparation, rehearsal, and performance of all music repertoire
    6. perform selected music repertoire in the venue of one or more public concerts

    Course-specific content will be assessed continually by the conductor via standard rehearsal techniques, as the assigned music repertoire is prepared to a mastery level compatible with public performance. Mandatory student performance in the culminating concert(s) is the musical equivalent of a final comprehensive examination and shall be weighted as such in all instructor-generated grading schemes. (See course syllabus.)

    Music scores for all repertoire under study will be provided at no additional charge to students.
