  • Solo List and Reccomended List for 02-03-04 Ver 3
    Please read this before using this recommended guide! The following pages are being uploaded to the OSSAA webpage STRICTLY AS A GUIDE TO SOLO AND ENSEMBLE LITERATURE. In 1999 there was a desire to have a required list of solo and ensemble literature, similar to the PML that large groups are required to perform. Many hours were spent creating the following document to provide “graded lists” of literature for every instrument and voice part. The theory was a student who made a superior rating on a solo would be required to move up the list the next year, to a more challenging solo. After 2 years of debating the issue, the music advisory committee voted NOT to continue with the solo/ensemble required list because there was simply too much music written to confine a person to perform from such a limited list. In 2001 the music advisor committee voted NOT to proceed with the required list, but rather use it as “Recommended Literature” for each instrument or voice part. Any reference to “required lists” or “no exceptions” in this document need to be ignored, as it has not been updated since 2001. If you have any questions as to the rules and regulations governing solo and ensemble events, please refer back to the OSSAA Rules and Regulation Manual for the current year, or contact the music administrator at the OSSAA. 105 SOLO ENSEMBLE REGULATIONS 1. Pianos - It is recommended that you use digital pianos when accoustic pianos are not available or if it is most cost effective to use a digital piano.

The interesting thing here is that they use the whole keyboard and introduce patterns that frequently appear in the more advanced pieces, so they are excellent preparatory pieces.

  • Syllabus of Dance Descriptions
    Syllabus of Dance Descriptions STOCKTON FOLK DANCE CAMP – 2009 – FINAL In Memoriam Jean Brown August 21, 1926 – August 3, 2008 Jean was a resident of Galt and a former resident of San Jose, California. Jean taught elementary school for 30 years at O. Hubbard School in San Jose, and during those years she also devoted her time after school to developing and teaching international folk dance to children. She and her mother spent countless hours sewing costumes by the hundreds! Her groups danced at schools, hospitals, and community events around the Bay Area. In her last year of teaching at Hubbard, 180 children participated in dance classes. Following the death of her first husband in 1987, she moved to the Stockton area and remarried. She and her second husband Norm taught three dances classes a week in Galt and Lodi and spent two weeks every year at Stockton Folk Dance Camp. She attended Stockton Dance Camp for 31 years; her most recent contribution was the Recreational Dance Workshop Bora Gajicki July 24, 1937 – August 17, 2008 “A joy to behold, a challenge to imitate.” Borivoj Gajicki was born in Gospodjinci, a village in Serbia. After his military service in the Yugoslav Navy, he danced professionally with Ansambl KOLO for seven years. He traveled extensively in Yugoslavia and Europe as a solo dancer with this world-famous troupe. In 1967, he met and married Margarita "Marge" Tapia while she was vacationing in Yugoslavia. After coming to California, he started a kolo class at the Yugoslav-American Club. Bora and Marge later opened The Folk Motif in 1970, a small business specializing in opanke, folk costumes, books, and related folk items.
