On successful completion of this course students will be able to:

1	Exhibit technical and musical skills that, through accuracy, fluency and stylistic awareness, illustrate a strong and maturing conceptual and interpretative understanding of the student’s instrument and chosen repertoire.
2	Exhibit effective practising strategies which arise from independent, imaginative and creative approaches to problem solving including the use of contemporary technologies
3	Manifest critical understanding of the performance standards required for professional endeavour and an ability to assess one’s own performances and those of fellow musicians
4	Exhibit skills in performance etiquette, communication and interaction with an audience.
5	Exhibit curiosity, self-awareness and problem-solving skills that will enable continuous learning and growth.

As appropriate for practical specialisation:

1	Scores of repertoire prescribed by instrumental teacher (Elder Music Library houses an excellent collection of scores available for loan to students). Original copies of the music must be used for examinations.
2	Technical workbooks as required by instrumental teacher for your specific instrument specialisation.
3	Engagement of the services of a professional accompanist for lessons (where required), performance examinations and other performances.
4	A good quality recording device to record practice and performances on a regular basis.
5	Metronome, tuner, pencil & eraser, ear plugs - as needed

Regular listening to a variety of performances is recommended. Students can listen to works through the library's Naxos subscription (see library catalogue, search using Naxos as the title and limit search to ‘electronic resources’. You will be prompted to enter your uni ID number and password to access the Naxos catalogue). There is a wealth of material available for listening (but not downloading). The link to the Naxos catalogue is In the Music Resources Guide:http://libguides.adelaide.edu.au/music - you will find links to both Naxos and Naxos Jazz under “Quick Links” on the left side of the page.

The Music Resources Guide contains quick links to key music databases for scholarly research and online listening. It also contains links to websites of publicly available online scores, collected editions, and professional associations. Here too you can find a regularly updated list of new books, scores, CDs and DVDs available in the Elder Music Library.http://libguides.adelaide.edu.au/musicMusic Online: Access to online music from library’s other Music Database

Music Online – incorporating Classical Music Library, Jazz Music Library, American Song, Contemporary World Music and Smithsonian Global Sound for Libraries) is now integrated in Library Search – just type the work you require into the general Library Search box and narrow down appropriately.

In the Course Materials section, there are folders set up for each of the various practical areas namely: Trombone, Trumpet, Piano, Drums, Voice, Guitar, Bass and Woodwind.

 Individual tuition lies at the core of developing advanced performing skills. The instrumental/vocal teacher monitors each student’s progress, diagnoses technical problems and suggests strategies for independent practice.

The Jazz Masterclass is managed by the relevant instrumental lecturer and focuses on technical and musical issues pertaining to the instrument.

Jazz Forum provides one or two performance opportunities per semester. Students are also expected to make critical comments about performances of peers at the Forum and to provide written comments.

Individual 1:1 tuition - 1 hour per week- 14 - hours per semester

In addition to the required contact hours, students are expected to prepare and practise all repertoire, technical exercises and other material assigned by their instrumental teacher. These structured learning skills prepare the student for ensuring that the material set for 1:1 lessons is prepared. Students should note however, that the demands of the music profession are such that considerably more time should be spent in private instrumental practice.

121 hours per semester

Master Class: 10 hours per semester

Jazz Forum: is based on attendance and participation in scheduled performances with small ensembles

Students may need to regularly book practice facilities in order to meet the requirements of this course.

Students are expected to engage with a rhythm section of their choice for their Performance exams.

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).

The following types of Leave are applicable:

Sick Leave

In cases of sickness, the Leave form must be submitted within 7 days of your return to classes.

Students must make every effort to notify the relevant staff member of an impending absence for reasons of sickness. Where a rehearsal or performance is involved, Leave will only be approved if the relevant staff member is notified before the event.

Normally, an original medical certificate must be supplied with the Leave form to verify the circumstances. The relevant staff member or Head of Studies in cases of absences involving multiple activities or days may waive the requirement to produce a medical certificate if they have clear evidence of illness and believe that a medical certificate is unnecessary or impossible to obtain.. The Leave form will need to be initialled as part of the notification or approval process in this case.

Compassionate Leave

Compassionate Leave may be granted at the discretion of the relevant staff member where extenuating circumstances have prevented a student participating in a rehearsal, workshop, class, lecture, tutorial or performance. Usually this means circumstances which were unforeseen and legitimately beyond anyone’s control, however this will not always be the case.

Where the circumstance is known in advance, approval for the Leave must also be obtained prior to the event.

In cases such as bereavement or where care of a close family member is required, notification as soon as possible is expected and the form must be submitted within 7 days of your return to classes.

Verification of the circumstances will usually be required.

Professional Development Leave

Professional Development (PD) Leave may be granted in cases where the student has made a case to the relevant Head of Studies for an activity which they believe will be of considerable professional and educational benefit. This activity should: be directly related to Coursework within your Conservatorium program or involve Coursework or study at a major tertiary national or international music institution or involve Performance, Workshops or other relationships and activities with a high profile, national or international artist(s)When determining PD leave, the duration of the project also affects approval, particularly for absences greater than one week.

PD leave will not be granted if the proposed activity conflicts with any commitments a student has to a Conservatorium performance where their attendance at rehearsals and the performance itself are a required part of their studies.

PD Leave is only granted in advance of the activity (normally at least 7 days prior). It will NOT be granted retrospectively.

Final arrangements for any professional development commitments must wait until formal approval has been granted by the Head of Studies and then all signatures of relevant staff members are obtained. Approval is not necessarily guaranteed.

Verification will be required as part of the approval process and must be supplied with this form.

Leave applications must be completed, documentation attached (if required), signatures obtained, then submitted following the steps below.

Step 1: NOTIFYING STAFF
