Course Description
Applied Music Study is the intensive study of the instrument in the private
studio. The teacher works with the student to improve tone and technique, to
learn new literature, and to pursue other activities designed to improve musicianship.

(BME students do not take this course during their student teaching semester.)
Lessons consist of one 50 minute session per week. An audition at the beginning
of fall and spring semesters is required for placement in Departmental principal
and specialized ensembles.
MUSC 1094/95-38, 2094/95-38, 3094/95-38, 4094/95-38 (Non-Majors) Hours:

Course Requirements
Attendance:
It is the student's responsibility to come to ALL lessons. Make-up lessons will
only be scheduled at the teacher's convenience if 24 hours cancellation notice
is given, or if it is an extreme emergency. Conversely, the teacher will make
every reasonable effort to re-schedule. All student illnesses must be accompanied
by a Doctor's excuse. Any unexcused absences will cause the final quarter grade
to be lowered by ONE FULL LETTER GRADE FOR EACH ABSENCE. Please be advised that
although the Campus Health Center does not give out written excuses, your teacher
is welcome to call them regarding your visit. The teacher and the student will
document each lesson by signing an "AMR" (Applied Music Record) at
the time of the lesson. The teacher will then turn in the AMR to the BFAC Office
at the conclusion of each quarter.
If a student knows that he or she will miss a lesson due to a field trip, matinee performance, conference, etc., it is the student's responsibility to notify the instructor as well as exchange lesson times with another student in the same studio. If this is not possible, the student must reschedule with the teacher at least one week prior to the expected absence.
Other Requirements
Studio Class
All students registered for MUSC 466, 476, or 486 are required to attend three
performance seminars each quarter according to the posted schedule by instrument.
These seminars will take place on Tuesdays 3:00-3:50 or as per your studio teacher's
schedule. The performance seminar is a studio class in which the teacher combines
his/her students for performance or a master class situation. Failure to meet
this requirement will result in the lowering of the term grade by one letter.
Individual instructors may hold additional seminars at their discretion.
Departmental Recital Solo Performance
All students registered for MUSC 476 and 486 must perform in a solo capacity
at least once during the academic year on a Thursday afternoon Departmental
Recital. A specific performance date will be assigned to each student with seniors
performing in the fall, juniors and sophomores in the winter, and freshmen in
the spring. A complete list of performers and assigned dates will be posted
at the beginning of each quarter. Additional soloists and small ensembles may
schedule as time permits. Failure to fulfill this requirement will result in
a failing grade for spring quarter applied lessons.
Off Campus Commitment Permission
Students seeking to audition and/or perform for music events and functions outside
the Department of Music or the Department of Theatre and Dance must seek permission
to do so from the chairperson of the Department of Music by completing an Off
Campus Commitment permission form even if permission has also been sought through
the Department of Theatre & Dance. This permission must be granted prior
to the requested audition.
Studio Instructor
In order to ensure singular purpose while studying instrumental music for credit
at Otterbein, it is expected that the student will study solely with his/her
assigned instructor, and not with a teacher from outside the Otterbein community.
There will be no exceptions to these regulations. The student's primary responsibility
during the four undergraduate years lies with Otterbein and with the chosen
degree program.
Faculty and Student Recitals
It is expected that students will attend recitals and performances related to
their area of private study. This would include recitals and performances by
string faculty and other students in the string area. This is not only an opportunity
to expand the literature with which you are familiar, making you a more well-rounded
musician, but it shows respect and support for your student and faculty colleagues.
Repertoire
It is the philosophy of the Department of Music that all students, regardless
of major or degree track, should emphasize the study of art music in the studio
toward the development of a standard classical technique. Students will be assigned
repertoire from a variety of styles that are appropriate to students' background
and needs.
Juries
Juries are the final exams for all instrumental students and are held at the
end of each term. During the jury, the student performs for members of the instrumental
faculty and is given written critique by the faculty members present. Students
should fill out the correct number of critique forms available outside the BFAC
office.
All students registered for MUSC 466, 476, or 486 are required to perform a jury at the end of each quarter. 20 minutes will be allowed for those students registered for 486, and 10 minutes will be allowed for those students registered for MUSC 476 and MUSC 466. Juries may be rescheduled only through the permission of Professor Underwood, Director of Band, Wind and Percussion Activities. If a student does not appear for a scheduled jury, the quarter grade will automatically be an "F."
The average jury grade of the faculty members present will comprise 25% of the final quarter grade.
Instrumentalists who generally perform with piano accompaniment must do so with at least one piece per jury twice during the academic year. Accompanists will be provided for juries. It is mandatory for each student to rehearse with their assigned accompanist prior to the jury. Accompanists' fees must be paid in advance to the Business Office (not the BFAC office.) Failure to pay your jury fee and to rehearse with accompanist will result in cancellation of the jury and an automatic "F" for the quarter.
The jury prior to the recital quarter will be considered a preliminary hearing. The jury will consist of excerpts of the recital program performed with accompaniment. The entire proposed program must be presented to the committee in written format at that time. The faculty present will determine if the student's preparation is adequate to continue in the process. Students presenting preliminary hearings will be assigned a 20 minute jury time.
Jury details and sign-up lists will be posted outside the main office of BFAC approximately two weeks before the end of each term.
Jury exemptions: Students presenting full or partial recitals are not required to perform a jury during that quarter. The only exception is if the recital occurs during the first two weeks of the quarter. In this case the student will be expected to prepare new repertoire for a regular jury at the end of the quarter.
Grading
Grades are determined individually by the instructor based on the fulfillment
of the above requirements. Teachers will take into account such factors as performance
level, amount of material mastered during the quarter, improvement, effort,
and achievement. The average jury grade of the faculty members present will
comprise 25% of the final quarter grade.
Students must maintain at least an average of "C." Teachers who have students who are not maintaining a "C" average must inform the students of the situation. The teacher will also notify the department chairperson through the appropriate area head.
Recitals
Please refer to the section on Recitals in the main portion of the Handbook,
pages 25-29. Please note that BME students may not schedule a Senior recital
during the quarter in which they will be student teaching.
Preliminary Hearing: The jury prior to the recital quarter will be considered a preliminary hearing. The jury will consist of excerpts of the recital program performed with accompaniment. The entire proposed program must be presented to the committee in written format at that time. The faculty present will determine if the student's preparation is adequate to continue in the process. Students presenting preliminary hearings will be assigned a 20 minute jury time.
Recital Grading: Recitals will be graded by a three person committee consisting of the studio teacher, Professor Underwood (Director of Band, Wind and Percussion Activities) plus one other Department of Music full-time faculty member. Since the student is exempt from juries the quarter in which a recital is presented, the recital grade will equal 50% of the final quarter grade, while the other 50% will be determined by the studio teacher.
NOTE: This syllabus is the official document governing instrumental study at Otterbein College. It is imperative that it is read carefully with the teacher, and that all details are carefully observed. If any of the conditions listed are not met, grade reduction or loss of credit may result.
Otterbein College is committed to ensuring that students with disabilities
have access to an education. In order to receive appropriate accommodations
in my class, you must first be registered with the Office for Disability Services
(x1618 or Lmonaghan@otterbein.edu). I strongly encourage you to schedule an
individual meeting with me as early in the quarter as possible to discuss your
needs and accommodation requests. If necessary, we can work cooperatively with
the Disability Services Coordinator to determine optimal accommodations in this
course.
