PRCBR 764T Orchestral Repertoire for Timpani IV
This course offers percussionists the opportunity to intensely study orchestral repertoire for timpani, complementing their work in studio lessons and the Percussion Orchestral Repertoire class. Students will receive guidance and instruction in a masterclass format with demonstrations by the instructor when necessary. For each class, students will prepare passages and excerpts from the assigned repertoire, several of whom will be called upon to perfonn. The class will listen to several different recordings of certain passages as a reference and discussions will be lead by the instructor ranging in topic from technical challenges, stylistic nuances, and musical interpretation. The class will meet every other week for 2 hours and grading will be based on each student's preparedness and participation.
