will fall asleep and drool. Students will do activities such as games on the
board, demonstrating with their instruments, conducting patterns, and fun worksheets
to become aware of general music theory. No homework! We recommend that students
be in their first or second year of private music instruction and be in the
5th through 8th grades.

An alternative to the large classes, we are offering Interactive
Music Theory as group classes of 2 or 3 students;
the classes are a half an hour long. Students may sign up at
any time with Ann Marie Falcone. Adults are welcome to sign
up, also.
Interactive Music Theory II: Students will learn to identify
chord structures, scales, intervals, and non-harmonic tones with the use of
their own band, choral, orchestra, or private lesson music. The students may
be asked to demonstrate what they find in their music on their instruments.
Listening examples from the rock, pop, and classical genres, flashcards, and
worksheets will be used. Students need to have at least three years of private
music instruction and be in the 8th through 12th grades.

Chamber Music Classes
“I like playing in a chamber group. I’ve made two good friends,
and Miss Falcone makes it fun. We request movie music, and she arranges it
for us.” Rocky Seftel, 7th grade, clarinet
Clarinet or Woodwind Trios & Quartets: The
students will learn how to listen to each other, follow the
part with the melody, and perform without a conductor. Repertoire
will be picked from traditional music and movie or popular
music arranged at the ensemble’s level. Music will be
provided. A short audition is required for placement with others.
The ensemble will perform at the end of the semester.

how to play together, listen to each other, and perform without a conductor.
