Pause and Ponder
The power of this
lesson is to
demonstrate how
popular music can
be taught
seamlessly through
performance to
motivate the
students and
reinforce sightreading and
enjoyment.
Hopefully students
will buy in and
generate greater
understanding of
the concept when
their learning is
directly linked to the
performance
repertoire. This
lesson should be
taught during the
rehearsal with the
teacher continually
reminding the
students of the
necessity of the
concept and skill in
order to
successfully
perform the
repertoire.
