Preservice professionals and less experienced directors of wind bands may lack skills for determining the quality of materials chosen for study, as well as knowledge of standard literature for these ensembles. For this study, a survey group of collegiate directors of bands was selected on the basis of their expertise in wind literature. Most other studies on repertoire for wind bands have employed random selection methods to choose survey respondents. These selected participants were asked to respond to a survey concerning standard literature for band and the criteria for identifying quality in band literature. They were also asked to nominate high school band directors whose opinions they respect on the topic of repertoire selection. These recommended directors were asked to complete a similar survey. The survey respondents included 83 directors from both the collegiate and high school levels who teach in all six regions of the College Band Directors National Association. The respondents exhibited a wealth of experience in the field with most indicating that they had twelve or more years of teaching experience. The ultimate goal of the project was to construct a syllabus for a course in wind literature that would include the results of this research. The course builds upon the concerns expressed and recommendations derived from the review of literature, as well as the recommendations of the survey respondents. The survey identified 24 grade III-VI works from the standard literature of the wind band that through study and analysis would provide insight for determining criteria of quality in wind literature. In addition, a list of criteria for determining quality in music was substantiated for use as a catalyst for discussion in the class and to serve as a basis for students to develop their own criteria for determining quality in music, especially the quality of less familiar works that have not yet entered the body of standard literature. 2004-06-18 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1085879695 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1085879695 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
