WEEK 2 (APRIL 6th - APRIL 12th) ENGAGING ACTIVITIES: 
 
VIRTUAL PIECE!

This week's activities are going to be 4 mini activities that will add up to one big activity.  We are going to try and recreate a piece of music by taking a part of your ensemble music and having you record it along with a metronome. 
You will need the following to complete this: 
1.  Your instrument
2.  A metronome 
3.  Headphones
4.  Your music (if you don't have the piece don't worry, I've attached copies of the parts below).  
5.  A phone/Ipad/computer or something to record video/audio on that can then be emailed to me.  
It sounds complicated but once you actually are set up to do this it should not take you long at all.  
 
Engaging Activity #1 - Download a metronome if you do not have one.  (THIS IS ESSENTIAL)
I recommend "Pro Metronome" as it's free and easy to use.  If you have GarageBand on your Ipad or phone you already have a metronome.  
 
Engaging Activity #2 - Tune
Make sure your instrument is relatively in tune (this mostly applies to string players but it's probably worth checking out for all of you so when we make this video it will sound decent).  You can download "Tuner Lite" if you do not have a tuner.  I know many of your already have this tuner as we've used them in class. 
 
Engaging Activity #3 - Record the following selection:
Record yourself playing "ALL STAR" beginning at measure 17 and end on the downbeat of measure 32  (You can play 25 instead of whistling).  Scanned copies of the parts are below if you do not have your music.  You may record this as a video or an audio clip (video would be cooler for the finished product but I'll understand if you do not feel comfortable sharing a video).  Put your metronome on 100 BPM.  When you record, use your headphones to hear your metronome so that we do not hear it in your recording.  Count yourself off audibly "1 - , 2 - , 1,2,3 (rest)" and then begin playing.  It is IMPERATIVE that you stay with the metronome.  When you finish, move on to the directions in Engaging Activity #4. 
 
 
Engaging Activity #4 - Share
Once you are finished, share recording in the following shared folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_Wl118p9NInHbhLJy7fJ_t6RKfJ8eHQ9?usp=sharing
