Orchestra A
Enrolment code: FCE210

Unit description:
The first of four units of orchestral studies. At this level the student may play in the
nominated ensemble less frequently than advanced students in order to devote more time
to acquiring the skills necessary to contribute more fully. The sequence of units is designed
to provide students with practical experience in the study, rehearsal and performance of
orchestral music. Through weekly rehearsals, aspects of performance are explored
including intonation, ensemble skills (playing together precisely and rhythmically),
interpreting the gestures, mannerisms and wishes of the conductor or leader, tone control
as well as the ethics and correct behaviour expected of a member of an ensemble. Other
issues covered include the performance of individual and sectional excerpts. The
repertoire for this unit covers a wide range of styles from early Baroque through to
contemporary scores requiring new performance techniques. This unit gives students
performance experience of these styles over a cycle of four semesters. Students are
required to attend regular rehearsals, workshops, sectionals and performances as
determined by the coordinator.
