Teaching Music Improvisation with Technology Hardback
by Michael (Music Technology and Jazz Educator, Music Technology and Jazz Educator, Haverford Hig Fein
Hardback
Description
Incorporating technology in music classrooms can take the mystery out of improvisation.
What music technology does is establish a strong foundation for chord, scale, phrase, ear training, and listening exercises, creating a solid backdrop for student expression.
As author and educator Mike Fein shows, technology is a valuable tool that can be used effectively to supplement student practice time while also developing the skills necessary to become a proficient improviser.
Complete with notated exercises, accompaniment tracks, and listening resources, this book gives teachers methods to set their students free to make mistakes and to develop their own ear for improvisation at their own pace.
Broken down into significant areas of music technology, each chapter focuses on developing a new skill and guides readers to tangible outcomes with the assistance of hands-on activities that can be immediately implemented into the classroom.
In addition to these hands-on activities, each chapter provides the reader with an "iPad Connection" to various iOS applications, which allows teachers and students another, albeit significantly less expensive, medium through which to learn, share, and create art. This book will appeal to music educators of students in grades K-12.
It will serve collegiate music education courses secondarily, and will also appeal to those music educators who work with improvisation and technology.
