Course overview
The primary purpose of this course is to provide students with the opportunity to further develop both their performance skills and their level of pedagogical understanding. Students will prepare and deliver a lecture recital of 50 minutes duration, which may include a viva voce. In the lecture recital students will demonstrate their understanding of key repertoire and technical skills associated with their instrument, alongside their individual level of performance and musical interpretation. Preparatory work will be supervised individually or in small groups as approved by the Conservatorium and will involve the student in considerable time spent developing specialist knowledge, skills and insights bearing upon the program of works to be presented. A performance class will support the students learning experience.
Clear and detailed documentation in a reflective journal of activities including lesson observations, reflections, rehearsal and concert observations and attendance at Elder Conservatorium based activities
