S.T.U.B.B.I.E. TUNES Chorale Exercises for Band
This set of ten chorales are meant to provide students with the skills and inspiration to always go beyond just playing notes. They have been arranged with non-traditional voice leadings, range and tessitura issues, and added rhythmic, melodic, and harmonic cadential stimuli to challenge students to make musical choices. Further, we have chosen not to indicate any musical ideas or give interpretative hints on the parts (tempi, dynamics, styles, balance, etc.) We intentionally leave that up to you and your students to allow you to experiment with various elements and skills required for making highly emotive music. Use these chorales as a vehicle to unify the intent and execution of every note which will then be transferred to the repertoire you are rehearsing and performing.
