Lecture and tutorial for Improvisation and workshop for the Rhythm component.

The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

In addition to the required contact hours, students are expected to study the materials presented and apply them to assignments, tunes list tunes and their playing in general.

It is anticipated that students will need to spend 3-4 hours per week in reviewing lecture notes, preparing for tutorials, listening to repertoire, preparing assignments and undertaking suggested readings.

Contact hours: Jazz Improvisation I:   1 hour Lecture +  1 hour Tutorial + 1 hour Rhythm Workshop. 

Jazz Improvisation 1:

Lecture Content:

Lectures will be given to outline the following material:

Beginning and continuing concepts in jazz improvisation; including arpeggiating chords; constructing and executing II V I’s; synchronized, continuous 8^th note lines; hitting strong chord tones on ‘1’; surrounding note figures; ‘first choice’ scales; developing listening skills;

solo intensification; internalizing and executing cliché jazz language beginning in ‘pre-bop’ style and awareness of African-American rhythms.

In this course, penalties apply for any absences which are not formally approved, as outlined in the Conservatorium’s Student Participation and Attendance Leave Guidelines (see following). Leave Application forms are available from the Music Office and can be downloaded from the Music website – see

Student Participation and Attendance Leave Guidelines

EXPECTATION

All students enrolled in courses taught by the Elder Conservatorium of Music are expected to actively and positively participate in 100% of required rehearsals, workshops, classes, lectures, tutorials and performances.  In courses where Participation & Attendance penalties apply (as defined in the Course Outline), any student who misses more than 40% of required classes will be ineligible for assessment in that course, irrespective of the amount of leave that has been formally approved.

LEAVE

The Conservatorium recognises that extenuating circumstances may occasionally affect a student’s ability to participate in a rehearsal, workshop, class, lecture, tutorial or performance.  In such cases Leave may, upon application using this Leave form, be approved by the relevant staff member (this could be the Head of Studies, teacher, conductor, lecturer or course coordinator as appropriate).

Five equally weighted assignments which may include playing over tunes list tunes and/or specific exercises related to the tunes.  A practical exam at the end of the semester may include the same and related tasks and tunes.  A written exam at the end of the semester may include melodic and harmonic analysis of musical examples.

Late assignment policy:

Extensions are only granted when supporting documentation can be provided and then, and only then, by arrangement with the course lecturer prior to the due date and time. Extensions will not be granted under any other circumstance. Assessed work that is submitted late (after the due date and time) will not be examined for assessment or feedback.

In the case of illness this will require a medical certificate, and in the case of personal (non-medical) circumstances you will need a letter of support from a 最新糖心Vlog Student Counsellor. For further information please refer to the following website:

Students must be available during the identified 最新糖心Vlog examination periods. Students are not entitled to sit an examination at another time, nor are they entitled to any other concessions if an examination conflicts with a planned vacation or special event.
