Elementary Music Program The elementary music program aims to enrich the lives of children in Kindergarten through Grade 4– aesthetically, socially, academically, and personally. Students are encouraged to cultivate sen- sitivity to the world of sound, form, and color. Our well-balanced elementary music program pro- vides the basis for later music appreciation and participation, both in school and as an adult. Music is an academic discipline, which has a language of its own; therefore, we believe that music is an essential part of the balanced curriculum. The discipline learned in the music ensemble ex- perience transfers and supports classroom learning in all areas. In particular, this discipline pro- vides continuity of learning in areas such as spatial relationships, sequencing, logical thinking, lan- guage development, and creative expression. Many of the approaches used in the elementary music classroom are influenced by the pedagogi- cal premises of Carl Orff’s Schulwerk. Music literacy experiences reflect the principles of Zol- tan Kodaly. Experiences and learning activities in the music program stem from the knowledge of how chil- dren learn. The following principles are the foundation of our program: All music learning begins with the ear and is continuous with motor / eye learning. Music skills are first expressed through the body and the voice; instruments are viewed as an extension of these. Meaning must be brought to symbols. The students need experience in hearing, nam- ing, and producing musical sounds before symbolization is introduced. The vehicles by which the children are learning include speech, song, movement, and instruments. Through these activities, these elements of music are sequenced within each grade level as well as spiraled from grade to grade: 1. Rhythm 2. Melody 3. Harmony 4. Form 5. Expressive qualities The development of musicianship and full enjoyment of artistic expression are the goals of the program as well as the recognition of individual and special needs of children. For those students for whom further study in music is appropriate, the foundation is laid. For all students, music can be a catalyst toward the maximum development of individual potential. .

  • Ludwig-Musser 2010 Concert Percussion Catalog AV8084 2010
    Welcome to the world of Ludwig/Musser Concert Percussion. The instruments in this catalog represent the finest quality and sound in percussion instruments today from a company that has been making instruments and accessories in the USA for decades. Ludwig is “The Most famous Name in Drums” since 1909 and Musser is “First in Class” for mallet percussion since 1948. Ludwig & Musser aren’t just brand names, they are men’s names. William F. Ludwig Sr. & William F. Ludwig II were gifted percussionists and astute businessmen who were innovators in the world of percussion. Clair Omar Musser was also a visionary mallet percussionist, composer, designer, engineer and leader who founded the Musser Company to be the American leader in mallet instruments. Both companies originated in the Chicago area. They joined forces in the 1960’s and originated the concept of “Total Percussion.” With our experience as a manufacturer, we have a dedicated staff of craftsmen and marketing professionals that are sensitive to the needs of the percussionist. Several on our staff are active percussionists today and have that same passion for excellence in design, quality and performance as did our founders. We are proud to be an American company competing in a global economy. Musser Marimbas, Xylophones, Chimes, Bells, & Vibraphones are available in a wide range of sizes and models to completely satisfy the needs of beginners, schools, universities and professionals. With a choice of hammered copper, smooth copper or fiberglass bowls, Ludwig Timpani always deliver the full rich sound that generations of timpanists have come to expect from Ludwig.

  • Vibraslap 1 Vibraslap
    Vibraslap 1 Vibraslap Vibraslap A Vibraslap manufactured by LP A vibraslap is a percussion instrument consisting of a piece of stiff wire (bent in a U shape) connecting a wood ball to a hollow box of wood with metal “teeth” inside. The percussionist holds the metal wire in one hand and strikes the ball (usually against the palm of their other hand). The box acts as a resonating body for a metal mechanism placed inside with a number of loosely fastened pins or rivets that vibrate and rattle against the box.[1] The instrument is a modern version of the jawbone. The Vibra-Slap was the first patent granted to the LP Vibraslap showing metal teeth instrument manufacturing company Latin Percussion.[2] The Vibra-Slap's inventor was Martin Cohen. Cohen was told by percussionist Bob Rosengarden, ‘If you want to make some money, make a jawbone that doesn’t break.' About the inventing process Cohen remembers, “I had never seen a jawbone before, but I had heard one on a Cal Tjader album. I found out that it was an animal skull that you would strike, and the sound would come from the teeth rattling in the loose sockets. So I took that concept and invented the Vibraslap, which was my first patent.” [3] The instrument is frequently used in Latin American music. The vibraslap was a ubiquitous part of jazz or pop-based film scores, primarily action films and television series, in the 1970s and early 1980s. It is also used extensively in the music of alternative rock band CAKE (as well as in "Weird Al" Yankovic’s “Close But No Cigar”, which is a parody of CAKE’s style).

Building a Relationship with Percussion Instruments Bill Matney, Kalani Das, & Michael Marcionetti Materials used with permission by Sarsen Publishing and Kalani Das, 2017 Building a relationship with percussion instruments Going somewhere new can be exciting; it might also be a little intimidating or cause some anxiety. If I go to a party where I don’t know anybody except the person who invited me, how do I get to know anyone else? My host will probably be gracious enough to introduce me to others at the party. I will get to know their name, where they are from, and what they commonly do for work and play. In turn, they will get to know the same about me. We may decide to continue our relationship by learning more about each other and doing things together. As music therapy students, we develop relationships with music instruments. We begin by learning instrument names, and by getting to know a little about the instrument. We continue our relationship by learning technique and by playing music with them! Through our experiences and growth, we will be able to help clients develop their own relationships with instruments and music, and therefore be able to 1 strengthen the therapeutic process.
