If a child hears fne music from the day of his birth, and learns to play it himself, he develops sensitivity, discipline and endurance. He gets a beautiful heart.” —Shinichi Suzuki ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ “People who make music together cannot be enemies, at least while the music lasts.” — Paul Hindemith ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ “The adventure of life is to learn. The purpose of life is to grow. The nature of life is to change. The challenge of life is to overcome. MUSICbrings people The essence of life is to care. The opportunity of life is to serve. TOGETHER The secret of life is to dare. The spice of life is to befriend. The beauty of life is to give.” —William Arthur Ward Page 4 Idaho Music Educators Association 35th Inservice Conference

∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ “All life is based on the fact that anything worth getting is hard to get. There is always a price to be paid. Scholarship can be bought only at the price of study; skill in any craft or technique can be bought only at the price of practice; eminence in any sport can be bought only at the price of training and discipline. The world is full of people who have missed their destiny because they would not pay the price. No one can take the easy way and enter into glory or greatness; no one can take the hard way and fail to fnd these things.” —William Barclay, commentary on John 10:17 Page 5 Idaho Music Educators Association 35th Inservice Conference 2017-2018 IMEA Institutional Members Please support our Institutional Members— Their membership shows their support for us!

11:00 A.M. CLINIC SESSIONS — V • GUITAR • Room 117, Music Building “Rocking out in guitar class with tabs and lead sheets” Tracy Martin, Canyon Springs Alt. High School Presiding: Joe Campbell Let’s take a slightly diferent approach on guitar: contemporary/popular music as the main curriculum with method books and theory as supplemental technique development. Great for recruitment, small schools, and creating performance-capable students. During this session, we’ll learn how to teach tablature and use a variety of notations to develop guitar students into performing musicians. Don’t worry, your method books will still get used (regularly!). Rather than reinventing the current curriculum, we will adapt pieces of it to support the greater repertoire of music that exists separate from published and notated sheet music. • BAND • Administration Auditorium, Administration Building “Using an efective warm-up for greater individual and ensemble success” Phil Hartman, Boise State University Demonstration Group: Fruitland High School Band Presiding: Dan North We all know that no one has enough rehearsal time. Unfortunately, some of us skip one of the most basic and important elements to a productive rehearsal: the warm-up. It’s simply not enough to play a scale or two, tune, and then go straight to the sheet music. In this session we will examine ways to craf a personalized group warm-up that will raise your ensemble’s individual and group performance level and have them mentally, musically, and physically ready for a great rehearsal. • GENERAL • Borah Teater, Pitman Center “Who, What, and Why: Re-framing Nonverbal Communication” Paul Tompson, University of Idaho Presiding: Kathleen Tetwiler As conductors, we frequently focus on how to conduct. Using ideas from information theory and the language of Bloom’s Taxonomy of Learning Domains, this session seeks to re-frame the discussion surrounding nonverbal communication to create a clearer understanding of what we are intentionally and unintentionally communicating to whom, and what factors can motivate those decisions. • CHORAL/SMALL SCHOOLS • Crest, Commons “Giving your Small-School Choir Wings” Matthew McDaniel, Victory Charter School Presiding: William Hale Tis session will provide small-school secondary choir directors with information and tools to help them grow their choirs both in size and ability. Both a one-year and fve-year plan to develop and grow a small-school choir will be shared. Te session will share the journey of taking a small, charter school choir from 7 members to 65 members over the course of 5 years and then maintaining a steady enrollment of 30-40 members annually, earning superior festival ratings at every step of the way. Strategies for developing the ensemble vocally, administratively, and culturally will be shared. Te session will also include tips for working with stakeholders (students, parents, administrators, and community members), choosing appropriate repertoire, developing student leadership roles, and ensuring student buy- in to the program. • TECHNOLOGY/BAND • Horizon, Commons “Pyware Tips & Tricks (Techniques)” Will Fairbanks, Greenville University Presiding: Jerry Tippets Pyware is the leading drill-writing sofware.

Yes, music theory, music education, and performance is important but it does not give the true picture of how to deal with parents, students, administration, the community, and the struggles of becoming the music educator for a school. Attendees will have an opportunity to learn to avoid some of the pitfalls through experience. • ELEMENTARY • Panorama, Commons OPEN FORUM Moderator: Shirley Van Paepeghem, North Star Charter School Our open forum sessions will center around topics that are unique to each content area.

Conducting Calisthenics will help you develop gestures that look like your music, are easily understood by your musicians, and reduce the need for rehearsal stops and explanations. Bring your baton and clear some space around you, while we all work through the routines such as Te Gas Station Dinosaur, Rainbows and Wrecking Balls, Play-Doh, Lifof and Landing, and others. Conducting Calisthenics is a method of building technique through a sequence of daily exercises similar to the daily routines of an instrumentalist. From a straightforward setting-up series designed to build control of space and time, through patterns that bring precise control of velocity, to motions that express nuance with clarity, this method can create and refne intuitive technique, and free the conductor to concentrate on the rehearsal, the score, and the art.

Hopefully, they spend a considerable amount of time outside rehearsals and lessons improving their skills. Unfortunately, few of them learn HOW to practice and thus waste time practicing inefciently. Javier Rodriguez, Assistant Professor of Bassoon, and Leonard Garrison, Professor of Flute at the University of Idaho, present a workshop on teaching efective practice strategies. Tey bring research and practical experience to their presentation, addressing such issues as: motivating students to practice, practice attitude s, using appropriate practice tools, practicing resources, quantity vs. quality of practice, the characteristics of efective practice, innovative practice techniques, and mental practice.

Jazz is one of the most liberating, exciting, creative, limitless and fun styles of music that any singer or instrumentalist can explore. Te frst objective of this session is to provide resources with a discography of recordings, books and publishers of high quality vocal jazz music. Pedagogy of teaching jazz style is my next goal and I will discuss and model teaching jazz style to singers…while maintaining healthy vocal technique. Te third aspect of this session will be experiential with all participants engaging in the learning of two contrasting excerpts of jazz choral music. I will use the “think aloud” method as I explain how I’m determining style and technique. Participants will sing parts and explore jazz concepts and phrasing. Participants will return to their schools with the tools needed to teach a jazz song with good jazz style. Teachers will have resources to continue to study and gain exposure to vocal jazz and they will have a greater understanding of what to listen to and imitate. Te participants will experience the challenge and fun of singing vocal jazz and be able to set goals for their own students.
