  • The 2020 NAMM Global Report Provides Members with Industry Data to Guide Decision Making
    2020 The 2020 NAMM Global Report Provides Members with Industry Data to Guide Decision Making This copy belongs to Markus Theinert A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR AND PRESIDENT/CEO The current economic and health situation reveals just how interconnected we all are. From trade to travel, our world has been turned upside down, but even as we grapple with change, one thing is certain: We are in this together. Regardless of political rhetoric, global supply chains and digital integration are here to stay. Our industry requires global growth to maintain our bottom lines, and data-driven decision-making will define the next century. While growth is never a straight line and there will certainly be bumps in the road, the trends and forces at play provide hope for a brighter, stronger future—one in which membership can power both a feeling of collectivity and the means to succeed. We believe that music unites us and brings out the best in humanity. In pursuit of this noble goal, NAMM is committed to providing tools to support our members all around the world. Whether it’s by offering business-building educational resources or connecting buyers and sellers, or through data analysis such as this report, we seek to empower you to make broad, economic decisions, while growing your network and skills. For this reason, we bring you the 2020 NAMM Global Report, capturing a snapshot of 28 markets. With 132 countries and regions attending The NAMM Show and international firms composing 32 percent of our total membership base, we recognize and value the need for a global industry perspective.

  • Abington School District the Elementary Instrumental Team
    ABINGTON SCHOOL DISTRICT MUSIC DEPARTMENT www.abingtonarts.org 2018-2019 Education in music is most sovereign, because, more than anything else, rhythm and harmony find their way into the secret places of the soul. - Plato The Abington School District takes great pride in being able to offer string, brass, woodwind, and percussion instrument classes at the Elementary, Junior and Senior High Schools. It is the goal of the directors to produce outstanding orchestras and bands. It is also the belief of the directors that students who are involved in an outstanding band and/or orchestra program learn more and develop better self-discipline, responsibility, and knowledge, and take pride in their musical accomplishments. To produce an outstanding orchestra or band requires that each student accept certain responsibilities: 1. Responsible Behavior 2. Dependability 3. Musical Excellence 4. Dedication One of the most wasteful decisions any school could make would be to discard arts education as a “frill." The investment in a fine arts curriculum is repaid many times over by the quality of life it fosters in the community and by the growth it encourages in our most valuable asset: our children. - William E. LaMothe Chairman & CEO Kellogg Company Band Program Description In the fourth grade students receive band instruction one day per week for 45 minutes. While the students are out of their regular classroom no new concepts are to be introduced. In the fifth and sixth grades band students receive one small group instruction class per week for 45 minutes. In addition, fifth and sixth grade band students are combined into a band for 45 minutes per week.

Now, What? American String Teachers Association Plus: Meet ASTA's New CEO www.astaweb.com ASTA's newest initiative, Be Part of the Orchestra, will help recruit new students to your program. www.astaweb.com | 3 4 | American String Teacher | August 2015 AMERICAN STRING TEACHER CONTENTS August 2015 | Volume 65 | Number 3 Features Rehearsal and Performance Guide: Sentimental Saraband 26 from Britten’s Simple Symphony Arguably the most profound—and certainly the most performed—movement of Benjamin Britten’s Simple Symphony, the Sentimental Saraband is a powerfully eloquent miniature masterwork. by Mark Laycock Collé Action: An Alternative Perspective on Right-Hand Finger 32 and Wrist Mobility We have all seen it—the dreaded claw-like bow-hand shape best characterized by straight and tense fingers. The image is unsettling because we, as string teachers, understand all too well that a lack of finger and wrist mobility will undoubtedly hinder the development of more advanced bow control. by Jacob M. Dakon and Selim Giray Historical Pitch Systems Still Affect Our Notions of Intonation 36 There apparently was a conductor at Indiana University who was fond of telling his orchestras that being in tune was like being pregnant—you either are or are not. I have come to strongly believe that portraying being in tune as a simplistic yes or no proposition is not just counterproductive, but completely inaccurate. by Jeffrey Showell Bass Forum 42 You Have Bass Players! Now, What? A Guide to Working with Beginner Bass Players from the Podium Student bass players can suffer an odd predicament when they first pick up the instrument in the orchestra.

  • The Instruments the Majority of Our Students Rent Instruments Through Menchey Music Service
    Dallastown Area School District Intermediate and Elementary Strings Program Handbook for Parents 2016-2017 Introduction Welcome to the strings program in Dallastown Area School District. For many years our orchestra program has enriched the lives of our students and brought the joy of fine music to our community. As your child enters this program, he or she will have the opportunity to become a part of a long-standing tradition of excellence in public school music. It is a challenging journey from those first beginning lessons to performing with the high school orchestra on a stage in Disney World. This handbook will guide you and your child toward achieving his or her greatest musical potential while still maintaining your sanity! It should also serve as a resource to answer many of the questions and concerns that arise during this exciting learning process. Electronic copies may be accessed on the district music websites for each string instructor. Please save this document in your computer files and/or print pages as needed. Also, please check the DAIS music website for lesson, orchestra, music, concert dates and other pertinent information. The Basics Lessons on violin, viola, cello and bass are provided for students in third, fourth, fifth and sixth grade on a weekly basis in each of our elementary schools, and in the intermediate school from September through about the first week of June. (Please note: beginning instruction is not offered after the fifth grade year. Students who wish to begin instruction in sixth grade or later would need to begin outside of school on private lessons and come into the school program when they have reached the appropriate level.) The sectionals, approximately 30 minutes in length, take place during the school day.
