OK, so how complicated is it to do a virtual ensemble? How “techie” do the kids and I need to be? All suggestions welcomed. Thanks.

Go to Midnight Music and read Katies blog post “please don’t ask me how to do a virtual choir... again” or something to that effect. It has extremely detailed reasons not to try this (or many ways to try if you’re still up for it, and yes, pretty tech saavy)

It’s a different skill set than that of an educator - it’s what you learn how to do when you have a MA in Record Engineering. If you are being asked to do that , I would suggest to agreeing to providing the resources for the students to learn the material - including virtual live sectionals, but for the actual recording part - they would need to hire a qualified recording engineer.

It’s more like how much time do you want to use sitting around and editing videos? I know there’s already been a few out, but unless you’re comfortable with that, there is a learning curve for it.

Additional Posts in Music Educators

Hi, all! Does anyone have any advice for a student who refuses to participate and continues to interrupt the class? I’m not sure how to engage a student like this

Hey! I’m planning to take an Orff Level 1 course this summer. Any tips, tricks, or advice as I prepare? Also, what other trainings would you recommend for elementary general music teachers? Thanks in advance!

What are some of your favorite ‘end of the year’ activities?

Someone once wrote of William Bligh, "God knows I never had any malice in my heart until I met this detestable brute."
I feel similarly about a music teacher at a different school in my district, who is not an administrator, but has decided to make himself one.
His particular talent is beating around the bush for hours without ever quite revealing what he wants you to do.
I have no idea how his students deal with it.

So the most recent post was 6 weeks ago. Do people still come here? For those that teach wind instruments, and aren't running full classes, I'm wondering what a typical class looks like for you? Are you playing instruments? Can you play indoors? What are you working on?

Anyone who knows you will be returning F2F: have your administratirs said what band/chorus classes can or cannot do when you return? I was told today at my school, there will be NO singing or playing instruments INSIDE of the building, and we're supposed to come up with ways to make that work.

So I’m planning on leaving my position before school starts, but the application and interview process has been slow. At this point I’m afraid I won’t find a job until late July. Should I let my school now and let them post my job as an anticipated position? I’d hate for them to have to find someone last minute, but I also want to keep that school as a fall back just in case. Unfortunately, it’s a terrible position and there has not been a lot of interest in it in the past.

Anyone know a good data resource? I’m struggling with an assignment for grad school about collecting and analyzing data.

I’m finding great research papers, but not a lot of data I can analyze. TIA

Anyone got any good music teacher memes?

Greetings, heroic educators!
I am a conductor hoping to start a chorus that will focus on works by wonderful but often-neglected composers, so I thought some fellow music teachers might be interested. If you like to sing and are up for a challenge, I'd love to have you!
Although we will be rehearsing virtually to start with, of course, I hope someday we can get together in person; hence, I'm mainly looking for singers in the northeast NJ/NYC area. Please let me know if you are interested!

Anyone have advice for talking to teachers in your school that are upset with you?
My 4th grade class didn’t show up today because the teachers are upset that student behaviors that are an issue in music are carrying over to their classroom. I understand their frustration, but nothing was communicated with me. I even thought things were going better this week.

Hi music teachers! How are you surviving? I’ve been teaching band and choir for a long time, but distance learning and Zoom has me stumped. I’m lucky to have a job, I realize. What are some things you’re doing in your virtual classrooms that your music students enjoy?
