Reading open scores at the keyboard is a necessary skill for all music educators, yet there is very little material available to help students develop this skill. Keyboard Skills for Music Educators: Score Readingis the first textbook that specifically addresses the needs of choral, band, and orchestra directors. It provides a gradual, graded approach to reading open scores, progressing from reading two parts to reading four or more in a variety of clefs. Each chapter focuses on one grouping of voices and provides many musical examples from a broad sampling of choral and instrumental repertoire ranging from Renaissance works to contemporary composers. Each chapter is divided into an introductory section, a collection of sight-reading examples, and a collection of more sophisticated excerpts for homework or prolonged study. In addition to the many examples for practice, the authors include step-by-step instructions on how best to approach open scores. This text provides the depth of materials and insight of seasoned music educators necessary to equip music educators with the ability to play from an open score at the keyboard.
