PERCUSSION AND MARIMBA ENSEMBLE SYLLABUS.  FALL 08.
 

EXPECTATIONS:  This ensemble is designed to explore the percussion and marimba ensemble literature of the 20th and 21st centuries.  Everyone must come to rehearsals fully prepared.  By this I mean: Music learned, pages prepared, proper mallets and sticks on hand, and  the correct instrumentation and instrument set up for those works being rehearsed.  All of these preparations need to be done on each individual's own time, NOT THE ENSEMBLE'S TIME.  Please do not learn notes, rhythms, or routines during rehearsal.  You will need to bring a dark hand towel to every rehearsal  for use on a music stand as a tray table. 

CONCERTS: October 6th , 8pm.  Loudis Recital Hall. 
December 9, 8pm, Loudis Recital Hall. 

DRESS REHEARSALS:  October 6th,  6pm Loudis Recital Hall.  December 9, 6pm, Loudis Recital Hall.
                                           

CONCERT DRESS:  Men, all black, pants, shirt, shoes, sox.  Women, all black, pants or skirt, shoes and shirt or blouse. 

GRADING POLICY:
You are expected to be at every scheduled rehearsal.  You will be allowed one missed rehearsal before your grade s reduced by one half of a letter grade.  You ae required to be at all concerts.  Missing a concert will constitute a failure for the semester.
