This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to explore instructional strategies and participation concerns regarding vocal jazz ensembles according to high school choral directors in Illinois who lead their schools’ vocal jazz programs. High school choir directors without jazz experience often recognize the need to expand their performance and pedagogical abilities in jazz and access to vocal jazz repertory; however, professional development opportunities in Illinois’ music education organization have yet to offer guidance. This leaves choral directors without jazz experience little insight on how to familiarize themselves with jazz styles, pertinent pedagogical ideas, and how to apply available resources towards the formation of vocal jazz ensembles. Literature that generally compares and contrasts choral and vocal jazz ensemble instruction exists; however, research has yet to extrapolate concepts applicable to disparate teaching contexts of high school choral programs in Illinois. This study surveys the perspectives of seventy-one choral and vocal jazz directors in various high school teaching contexts in Illinois to provide high school choral directors without vocal jazz programs insight regarding how to approach vocal jazz instruction in their choral programs, regardless of their jazz backgrounds, districts’ socio-economic context, and schools’ musical traditions. Since diversification of musical experience remains a growing initiative in music education, this study’s findings regarding pedagogy and resource application will provide directors with insight on how to expand their curricular explorations within and beyond typical choral programming. Directors would benefit from this insight, regardless of their extant musical-stylistic backgrounds and teaching contexts.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate vocal jazz ensemble study in the secondary choral ensemble. In pursuing this purpose, the researcher sought to answer the following questions: 1.) What are common practices for incorporating the elements of improvisation, listening skill, vocal health and balance, and assessment of vocal jazz performance ability into a vocal jazz ensemble unit of study for secondary school choral students? 2.) What are the most applicable assessment practices in a secondary school vocal jazz ensemble? and 3.) What effect does a vocal jazz ensemble unit of study have on secondary choral students’ vocal jazz performance achievement? The researcher designed and taught a secondary vocal jazz ensemble curriculum to fifteen students in her community children’s chorus in grades six through twelve. Best practices for content relating to vocal jazz instruction were informed by the results of interviews of master teachers in the vocal jazz field and a survey of participating secondary school choral teachers that are members of the Virginia Music Educator’s Association (VMEA). Methods of improvisation, development of listening skill, vocal health and balance, and assessment of vocal jazz ensemble performance ability were identified as common elements of vocal jazz ensemble instruction through an examination of the literature. Upon examining the interview transcripts and survey data, an additional element was identified: learning vocal jazz history. The examination of the t-test scores indicated that students did improve their vocal jazz performance ability while participating in a vocal jazz ensemble.

Book excerpt: This study examines the deficiency of vocal jazz education in high school choral programs and explores the weight of the issue by considering the cultural significance of jazz in America and its value as a tool in music education. Music curricula from 25 univerisites, as well as existing vocal jazz technique manuals, were analyzed to determine the validity of this problem. After finding little, the researcher constructed a manual meant to help classical choral educators familiarize themselves with vocal jazz practice and then educate their students in the style. Collegiate level music educators reviewed the manual to determine its efficacy. All agreed that the manual could be used to teach certain jazz concepts; however, some concepts require guidance from a teacher with more thorough training. The reviewers unanimously agreed that the best solution is for colleges to adjust their curricula so music students have greater opportunity to study vocal jazz.

Book Synopsis The Collegiate Vocal Jazz Ensemble by : Gregory Amerind
Download or read book The Collegiate Vocal Jazz Ensemble written by Gregory Amerind and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vocal jazz ensemble, a uniquely American choral form, has grown and flourished in the past half century largely through the efforts of professionals and educators throughout the collegiate music community. This document provides historical data as presented through live and published interviews with key individuals involved in the early development of collegiate vocal jazz, as well as those who continue this effort currently. It also offers a study of the most influential creative forces that provided the spark for everyone else's fire. A frank discussion on the obstacles encountered and overcome is central to the overall theme of this research into a genre that has moved from a marginalized afterthought to a legitimate, more widely accepted art form. In addition to the perspective provided to future generations of educators in this field, this document also discusses the role of collegiate music academia in preserving and promoting the vocal jazz ensemble. The discussion relies on recent data showing the benefits of vocal jazz training and the need for authenticity towards its universal integration into college and university vocal performance and music education training.

Book Synopsis A Survey of Florida High School Instrumental Music Programs by : Jonathan Rhame Hinkle

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past 60 years, jazz music has slowly become recognized as a genre worthy of study in high school music programs throughout the United States. Only a few researchers have analyzed large samples of jazz-related instruction in instrumental music programs, and of these studies no data were collected to investigate the inclusion of jazz in Florida high school instrumental programs or the background in jazz of directors in these programs. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to gather data on high school-level instrumental music programs in Florida and the band directors associated with these programs in an attempt to answer the following research questions: (1) What is the current status of instrumental jazz course offerings in Florida high schools? (2) Is there a relationship between the status of jazz course offerings in Florida high schools and demographic data of the programs or the directors who teach in these programs? (3) Is there a relationship between the status of jazz course offerings in Florida high schools and the band directors' experience with and training in jazz? Florida high school band directors (N = 239), representing a response rate of 46.5%, replied to an online survey instrument containing 21 comprehensive questions. Demographic data of participants and the programs they were directing, as well as questions associated with their training, experience, opinions, and attitudes toward jazz-related instruction were cross-analyzed quantitatively. The findings of this study revealed that many Florida high school music programs (38.5%) do not offer students opportunities in jazz music and that these programs parallel deficiencies found in schools in other states. The data gathered from Florida high school directors and programs suggest that a teacher's actual or perceived level of training in jazz genres, most notably through performance experience, is the greatest factor in the presence of jazz-related courses in high school music programs. Additionally, teachers' degree of jazz performance experience or training may have a considerable influence on their level of anxiety and comfort with jazz genres. Directors' lack of background in jazz inhibits the potential for jazz-related courses to be included in high school programs; thus, limiting the musical experiences of the students they teach. Data also suggest that teachers may be more willing to initiate courses in jazz if they were required to or were offered the opportunity to participate in jazz ensembles during their teacher preparation. To facilitate such participation, a college-level jazz ensemble that is specifically designed for the experience and pedagogical needs of future music teachers, in a non-intimidating and positive atmosphere where appropriate literature is performed at a high level, may be helpful to music education majors. Additionally, jazz may be more widely understood and appreciated if current and future school instrumental music teachers strive to provide opportunities in jazz instruction and performance to as many students as possible. Such an endeavor can be accomplished by incorporating an appropriate balance of ensembles and courses in their program.
