Mastery: emerging (Level 1)(based on Short-Term Certificate)

  • Basic conducting gestures — execute standard patterns for tempo and dynamics under the direct supervision of a senior director during rehearsal settings.
  • Musical scores — read and follow standard notation to identify key structural elements such as time signature, key, and dynamic markings in a supervised ensemble context.
  • Music theory fundamentals — apply basic harmonic and melodic principles to identify chord progressions and scales within assigned compositions in an academic or training environment.
  • Repertoire selection criteria — recognize factors such as ensemble size and skill level when assisting a director in choosing music for a student or community ensemble.
  • Music notation software — transcribe simple melodic ideas into digital notation using tools such as notation or sound editing software under guided instruction.
  • Rehearsal protocols — follow established rehearsal plans and director cues to support ensemble coordination during scheduled practice sessions.
  • Score study habits — analyze assigned scores to identify tempo markings, phrasing indications, and articulation details in preparation for supervised rehearsal participation.
  • Sound experimentation — test basic tonal combinations using synthesizers or digital audio workstations under direction to explore initial compositional ideas.
  • Active listening skills — distinguish pitch accuracy, rhythmic precision, and tonal balance among ensemble sections during supervised rehearsal observations.
  • Written communication — draft basic program notes or rehearsal schedules using word processing software to support administrative tasks in a music organization.
