palladio Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Most music education majors and teachers know how to teach more then one thing... While I don't necessarilly agree with your opinion regarding having the same staff for the vocalist and hornline, I get what you mean. As an instrumentalist, I alwaysalwaysalways portray my playing as though I am singing through my clarinet. While people might say that there's different staff for colorguard, percussion, etc.; brass and voice both have a lot of middle ground. I'm pretty sure all battery people know SOMETHING about front ensemble instruments & auxiliary, I'm pretty sure all colorguard staff know SOMETHING regarding every piece of equipment, etc. ... To be honest, I just want them to have someone great so that they max it out as much as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I hate amplified vocals as much as most people posting in here, but..."cheating?" That's ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danielle Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I sing all the time with my students since that is critical to working on aural skills and internalization, but being a vocal coach is a #### of a lot different. I would want someone that specifically studied vocal pedagogy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMichael1230 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 LOL - so how will they be paid ?? I guess more fundraising...or higher ticket prices ? Vocal coach needed to work on a members vocal skills, not brass, percussion, or marching skills. No marching block today, we are going to learn our scales !!! LOL Cheating ?? no, pathetic ? yup..not drum corps ? you bet. Pissy, badgering, silly, all of the above. ~G~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BariEuph Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Most music education majors and teachers know how to teach more then one thing... my two cents as a music education major... yes, we do know how to teach more than one thing. i've taken brass, woodwiind, percussion, strings, and vocal techniques classes. HOWEVER i will never be as comfortable teaching woodwinds, percussion, strings, or voice as i am teaching brass. if down the road i was on a brass staff and approached and asked to be a vocal coach for a top caliber drum corps, i would turn them down because i know i'm not the most qualified person out there. yes, i "sing" into my euphonium, and i conduct like i play my euphonium....but it doesn't mean i'm as proficient at teaching voice as i am teaching euphonium or low brass.
