Education ForumWelcome to the Education Forum. Following are our Focused Discussions, accompanied by brief introductions. Our Open Forum is designed to accomodate a more free-flowing dialogue. FOCUSED DISCUSSIONS:The High School Guitar CurriculumThe high school guitar program may be the most established area of K-12 guitar instruction in schools. There is sure to be a huge variety of curricula and stylistic types depending upon the needs of the schools and experience of the teacher. For the sake of focus in this topic, let's differentiate between those high school guitar classes that are introductory and strumming-centered with those that are oriented to developing students with the same essential musical skills as band and orchestra programs—that is, reading fluency, standard repertoire, solo and ensemble performing, etc. Let’s also say that the program type we are discussing is based upon three levels of classes offered: beginning, intermediate and advanced. What should these programs teach? Or more precisely: Instructional Goals: What should the students be reasonably be expected to do at the end of three years, of two, of one?Submitted by admin on Tue, 2007-02-13 12:26.

HELP! college audition piecesSubmitted by lilkarategrl137 on Wed, 2007-11-14 17:23.
Hey there! So I am a junior in highschool and im trying to start working on audition pieces for next year. I have been playing for 6 years and I would say I am a intermediate/advanced player, but recently I have been with a teacher who is on and off trying to get his degree in music as well. So, I was thinking I should get some advice from anyone who can help. I can play jazz and other acoustic type solo songs, such as Mood for a Day by Yes. Would that be a good song to play? What classical pieces should I look into? and what kind of other songs should I include? [ Related: Focused Discussions ]
