Why It Matters
Sister Rosetta Tharpe (born Rosetta Nubin, March 20, 1915 – October 9, 1973) She was the first great recording star of gospel music, later being referred to as "the original Soul Sister" and "the Godmother of Rock and Roll". She was such an influential force for early rock n roll, she was among the first popular recording artists to use heavy distortion on her electric guitar, opening the way to the rise of electric blues. #blues #rocknroll #electricguitar #musician
Do you hate how theory is taught from books and it seems to be just for classical musicians? Surely it applies to all styles? Classical, jazz, gospel, musical theatre, rock, pop.... We, at The Maestro Online decided to change that. We get real pieces, learn by doing, play pieces with understanding and discover the wonder of great harmony; we connect it with REAL music! Then, we improvise on what we've learned as well! We call it "Holistic Music Theory" or "Music Theory in Practice". https://lnkd.in/ecGn797M #musiceducation #musictheory #theory #improvisation #learnbydoing
"Too often, many new conductors take for granted the musical fluency that comes with years of training. We risk alienating those without that background by defaulting to traditional pedagogical approaches. I have observed that when a new conductor first introduced a new choral work, they assumed the choir could read the music and grasp the cultural context. However, when working with a community choir, what is needed is to provide historical, musical and cultural context, to tell the story behind the piece, and to guide them through the notation. This simple shift in perspective will help the choir connect with the music on a deeper level." Link to blogpost: https://buff.ly/3R9lrzf

Last week’s reflection talks about the need to understand positionality in the work and role of choral leadership, where we be mindful of who we are, where we come from, and how can we best serve the communities we work with. #communityleaders #communitydevelopment #SGArts #SGCulture #VoxCamerata #CCRP

It was good to see how a kid enjoyed belting her songs better when I held back a little more than usual!
