For students who have learnt some music, or completed our Rock Band 1.0 Program.
Our Intermediate Band Program gives students the opportunity to experience what it means to work as a musician in a professional environment.
Participants work on a repertoire and practice as a band, following instructions from the tutors and understanding how to behave and function as proactive band members.
This means they will practice how to count in, work on dynamics, sound tight as an ensemble, and prepare to perform at the end of each Term.
We provide a set-list so students can start working on these songs on their own or with their current tutors. Our aim is to showcase and let the participants experience how to work and behave in a work setting (rehearsing and workshopping arrangements for the songs).
We will be explaining some Theory and concepts such as:
· Dynamics
· Respect and inclusion
· Following directions
· Subdivisions
· Chords progressions.
· Transposition
· Harmony
· Singing
· Counting in
· Band roles and tasks.
· Having fun and engaging with others!
