| Sight Singing I |
Strategy and Evaluation |
Theory Things William Wieland |
| Sing slowly and keep a steady tempo. Do not pause, stop, or restart. Remember, good posture and breath support improve intonation. |

| For me, competency means few or no mistakes, e.g. a 4-bar phrase may have one careless mistake.
If a performance is of questionable quality, you will perform that level again later in the semester to earn full credit. |
|
If you score 100 before the semester is finished,
you may perform Reciting Rhythms and Conducting I,
Memorized Singing I,
2-handed Tapping I,
or begin Sight Singing II.
