MUSPERF 7024 - Major Recital V

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2018

The aim of this course it to develop a program of works in the repertoire of the specialisation that contributes to the development of advanced specialist knowledge in music performance. It culminates in the presentation of a 65-minute public recital. The recital projects are supported by one hour of 1:1 tuition per week and a series of workshops. Repertoire may include solo works, chamber music, orchestral material, concerti, or accompaniment. Recital programs are subject to approval and details must be submitted within the first 6 weeks of the program. The program of works is expected to demonstrate advanced performance with consistent confidence in technical presentation, demonstrate mastery beyond the knowledge of style, convince the audience of the vision of the work, be conducted in an ethical manner with an awareness of different cultural practices, and present a professional demeanour. The overall standard of the final recital is expected to be commensurate with entry level into the profession.

Learning Resources

Required Resources

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

Recommended Resources

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/music

Music 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.

Learning & Teaching Activities

Learning & Teaching Modes

Individual or small-group (maximum 4) supervisions form the central teaching and learning mode. Students pursue their performance project using instrumental practice to advance and finesse their goals. Individual/small group discussion encourages testing and sharing of musical theory and practice as students move towards a summative assessment in the form of a recital. Staff concerned have skills and knowledge in the specialist area being developed and are able to assist in the location and use of appropriate materials and scholarly and/or performance conventions and standards.

Workload

The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

Learning Activities Summary

Learning activities centre around weekly individual/small group lessons. These accommodate the learning styles of participants while encouraging a developmental curve in skills acquisition and knowledge based understandings. Performance forums underpin gains in stage presentation and musical projection.

Specific Course Requirements

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

Depending on practical specialisation, some students will need to engage the services of a professional accompanist for lessons, performances and examinations. Consult with your individual teacher or see the accompanist list available from the Music Office.

Small Group Discovery Experience

All individual/small group supervisions (maximum 4) adhere to SGDE principles with students actively engaged in content building and discovery.

The University's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
Assessment must maintain academic standards.

Student Feedback

The University places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the University to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness

Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
