Assignment: Build a Concert Program for your Band
This is a very in-depth assignment for building a concert program. It goes over philosophy, cultural considerations, exemplars, and resources for your students to thoughtfully put together a concert program. I find this assignment also cuts down my hours of listening to repertoire over the summer - I can go through my students selected pieces and start building next year's season based on their informed picks!The file is set up with a checklist of student tasks, and the basis for 4 classroom d

Trip Guidelines, Rules, Regulations, for Band, Choir, Orchestra - Word Format
Taking an overnight trip with a band, choir, or orchestra can do wonderful things for a program, however it can also cause the director many problems if everyone isn't clear about the rules of the road. This four page handout is the perfect parent/student meeting document to formalize the expectations of you, students, parents, administration, and community. I've used this same format several times with great success to help everyone have a great time and nip any misunderstandings in the bud. Wi

Fully Editable Music Department Handbook for High School Band and Orchestra
I find that creating a handbook for your program is one of the most important things you can do, to get everyone literally "on the same page." There is always a natural gap of information between director, student, administrator, and parent. A good handbook cuts through the misinterpretations and will clarify for everyone what the expectations are.Even the best handbook ever conceived could only be a starting point for creating one to match your program. When I arrived at my most recent school d

Marching Band Handbook - Editable in Word
Maybe even more important than creating a handbook for your concert program is one for your marching band. In most schools there will be few groups that perform or travel more outside of school. The opportunities for students to make choices both good and band are exponentially higher in a marching band then about any other school group. Running a marching band without a handbook is tantamount to walking the high rope without a net!I found that creating a handbook for your program is one of the
