Thank you so much! I teach elementary and middle school band lessons and the teacher I work with gave me permission to run rehearsal. I haven't learned this skill in college yet and this is very helpful.

Great video! I ordered the Battisti text. I think it was assigned or at least waved around at the front of the classroom back in my college days, and now I am moving into a teaching position that will require more demanding repertoire, therefore more precise and effective score study.

I had a masterclass with a composer, and he said it is important to study scores, so I looked up how to study scores and found this video. This can help me quite a bit.

That's great! I'm going to try this system :D do you do less, since you're more experienced or you always follow this in a detailed way? And how about vocal scores? Any awesome tips? :D
@nathanmuehl19022 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the message. I would do vocal scores the same way. There are other factors including schools of thought to Chorus ensemble sound. If I have time, I pretty much complete everything laid out in the video. The flowchart takes the most time. At the moment, I find the score marking and phrase structure to be most helpful.

I'm really intrigued by the way you mark the score. I've struggled with what approach to use for a while, so I'm giving this concept a go. Is there any written material about this available anywhere?

Make a choice that makes most sense to you. I will count the anacrusis as part of the next measure often.

at 10:28 I'm looking at your flowchart (which I LOVE btw), but want to know more about why you color in certain boxes and what each color means in the flowchart. Thanks!
@nathanmuehl19023 жыл бұрын
Flowchart was made in Excel, used the 'style cells' to provide color. Specific colors do not mean anything, just grouped like-sections together with same colors. For time signature, slightly darker purple each time the change happens. for tempo, same thing in green. The colors for the 'Form' section group sections that belong together with the same color.
@whatdyathink6 жыл бұрын
What do you do when you have a score that you can’t use colours in? Such as a rented score or a library score? I noticed that when I’m forced into a situation like this, it becomes a lot harder to learn now and I feel as though using colours has been a crutch
@nathanmuehl19026 жыл бұрын
good call. . . I wouldn't use colors , or mark a rented score. And when I do use colors, I try not to use it as something that I follow as a conductor, but rather as something I look at prior to conducting it to learn the score and get a mental image of it. If I don't have the mental image by rehearsal time, it really warrants more study.
@connorskeeters89812 жыл бұрын
What happens when there is a anacrusis within the phrasing structure? (idk if i phrased this right)
@nathanmuehl19022 жыл бұрын
You make a decision that makes most sense to how you will remember it. If the anacrusis is really part of the phrase connected to the next measure, I count it as being a 'part' of that measure.

I just started studying conducting and I have a lot of questions. But the one I want to ask the most is: should I try to imagine every instruments in my head when I study the score?? otherwise how will I know what sound I want during rehearsals?? Thanks!
@nathanmuehl19022 жыл бұрын
Yes, it is best to experiment with hearing every instrument. If you can build your skill to do so, you will have better rehearsals and performances.

+Nathan Muehl Thanks for replying! I'm interested in knowing more about how you're marking the score. The dynamic markings, muted, pizz. and unmuted/arco makes perfect sense, so I'm curious about how you mark fp, sf and other instructions like dolce or staccato.
@nathanmuehl19029 жыл бұрын
+Åge Jan Barlund For fp, I put a red ( to the left of f and a blue ) to the right of p.... for sf, I put red ( ) around the sf.... I don't make any markings for dolce , staccato, or other articulations... for me... the black written indicators are sufficient enough.... I only mark as a tool to hear the score away from the rehearsal... and more colors than I mentioned start getting into color overload in my opinion

Thanks for elaborating! I think this way of marking the score is more intuitive than the concepts I've tried before, so I will try it for a while to see how it works for learning the scores.
