SOA September 2013 Newsletter

SOA acknowledges the

generous support of:

With autumn upon us, it can only mean that another season of music making

and music education is underway. At the SOA, we have already completed a

very successful two day strategic planning seminar this fall. This seminar

has set us on a clear path that will allow us to further assist our music

community in achieving its goals.

The SOA recently received approval of our Three Year Global Funding

Application. After many hours of hard work from our staff, we have secured

an increase in our yearly funding. For the 2014 fiscal year, we will receive

an increase of $32,000. For 2015, we will receive an increase of $62,500

which will be maintained for 2016. This is great news for all our current and

future member groups! For 2014, we will be looking at funding increases to

our Operating Grants Program, Advocacy Projects and increasing our board

transparency and governance. Increases to Project and New Initiative Grant

Programs will begin in 2015.

I would also like to encourage everyone to make an effort to attend this

year’s Saskatchewan Music Conference. It will be held November 8th-10th in

Regina and will be full of great presentations from all the music PCOs.

Come support and learn from our clinicians and music educators! See page 2

-3 of this newsletter for more detail on this year’s programming.

In closing, I would encourage everyone to start preparing to submit their

grant applications so the SOA can help all our groups and new members

achieve their goals for this promising year of music making.

Saskatchewan Music Conference 2013

SOA Clinician Sessions

The SOA is partnering with the provincial music organizations to present the Saskatchewan Music Conference

(SMC) again this year. The SMC will be held on Nov. 7-9 at the Delta Hotel in Regina. The SOA will host

five sessions during the conference. There will be an awards banquet held on the Friday evening of the confer-

ence. An individual in the orchestral community will be presented with an award in recognition of their efforts

to develop orchestra players in Saskatchewan. We strongly encourage you to take in the conference this year.

Curtis Scheschuk – Double Bass Workshop

Friday @ 9:30am

Curtis Scheschuk will explore the role of the double bass in ensembles with an emphasis on the student bass

players roll in concert bands and high school orchestras. This workshop is an opportunity for band directors

and high school music teachers to learn how to get students who are new to the instrument off to a great start.

Gregory Chase – Cracking the Boy-Code: Aiding male students to reach their fullest potential. Friday @ 1:30pm

In the 1970s we were told that everyone learns the exact same way. We were told that there wasn’t any differ-

ence between the way that boys and girls learn. With the development of technology and advancements in

neuroscience, psychologists now realize that this is not the case and that boys and girls DO learn differently.

This humorous and informative session will take a look at how boys learn and process information. Learn how

we as teachers can gear our teaching to aid our male students to learn at their fullest potential.

For more information visit: http://www.crackingtheboycode.com

Gregory Chase – When the Volcano Erupts: Strategies for dealing with male students.

Saturday @ 9:00am

Not “IF” but “WHEN” the volcano erupts we need to have strategies in place when dealing with our male stu-

dents. This session will take a look at how to deal with boys as the lava is spewing forth in their meltdown or

aggressive behaviour. Questions answered in this session will consist of: “Why is ‘bad behaviour’ so appeal-

ing to boys?” “Why are boys confrontational and have a flagrant disregard for authority?” “Why do males

strive for sovereignty, even when it appears to be against their own self-interest?” Learn how to give male stu-

dents coping strategies and learn strategies in working with boys during a time of conflict.

Although not required, it will be helpful and beneficial to attend the previous session “Cracking the Boy Code”

prior to this session.

Wayne Toews - General: A Listening Program

Saturday @ 1:30pm

Wayne Toews will share tried and true techniques and materials to engage individuals and classes in focused

listening. For band, choir and general music classes. The listening program is an essential component of all

music classes.

Wayne Toews - Orchestral/General: Precision and Artistry through Conducting

Saturday @ 2:45pm

Wayne Toews presents insight into conducting technique with the Brandon University String Orchestra. The

repertoire is applicable to all instrumental and choral groups. Observe how differences in technique change the

sounds. Some will have the opportunity to conduct the group. Scores will be posted at http://

Regina Mandolin Orchestra

Hosts International Convention Submitted by Susan McLaughlin

The Regina Mandolin Orchestra will make history this month, as it hosts of the 27th

annual convention of the Classical Mandolin Society of America.

A strong publicity campaign has allowed us to almost double our original projection

for attendance. Excited mandolin and guitar players are coming from Anchorage, Aus-

tin and Australia! Professional mandolinists from Europe and across North America

will lead workshops and treat us to special performances. A massed orchestra of over

100 musicians will rehearse every afternoon, culminating in a (free) Gala public con-

cert on Saturday, Sept. 28th @ 7:30 p.m. in the Regina Performing Arts Centre.

The playlist for the massed orchestra includes a piece by tango-master Astor Piazolla, a medley of Canadian

Folk Songs, an epic work by Japanese composer Hiro Fujikake, a French ‘art song’ by Eric Satie, a March

from the ‘golden age’ of the mandolin, and the Canadian debut of competition winner ‘Chrysopylae Reflec-

tions’.

Full bios on all the guest artists, as well as more detailed information on all three of the public concerts availa-

ble the week of Sept. 24th are outlined at www.mandolinconvention.com.

You won’t want to miss this once in a lifetime event!

We would like to thank the S.O.A., the S.M.E.A. and the Regina Hotel Association for their financial support

of this event.

Regina Summer Strings 2013

The 2013 Regina Summer Strings (RSS) took place at Westminster United Church during the week of July 1 –

6. Thirty-two youth ranging in age from 9 to 18 participated in the day camp. The support of the Saskatche-

wan Orchestral Association made it possible for these young artists to work with the Annex String Quartet

from Toronto. This opportunity extended the high quality of instruction they already receive in Regina. In

light of the distance to larger musical centers like Toronto and abroad, most of the young artists have few op-

portunities to learn from accomplished string quartets.

RSS instructors included: Carolyn Blackwell, violin, Annex Quartet; Peter Cosbey, cello, Annex Quartet;

Thomas Cosbey, violin, Concertmaster, Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra; Mariko Kamachi, piano; Yunior

Lopez, viola, Annex Quartet; Marilyn de Oliveira, cello, Assistant Principal, Oregon Symphony; Hilary

Sametz, piano, viola; Curtis Scheschuk, bass, Regina Symphony Orchestra; Rudolf Sternadel, violin, Regina

Symphony Orchestra; Jonathan Ward, viola, Principal viola, Regina Symphony Orchestra; and Michelle Zapf

– Belanger, violin, Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra.

New to the RSS this year was the Concerto Competition held on July 1. Violinists, violists and cellists com-

peted for the opportunity to perform as soloist at the Young Artists pubic concert on Saturday, July 6. The

competition was a great success. RSS was also treated to a surprise fiddling session with prize winning fid-

dler, Pierre Schryer.

RSS faculty instructed orchestras, ensembles and provided students with individual instruction. Young artists

were given the chance to perform solos in master classes and daily recitals. While musical instruction is the

focus of the camp, there are many opportunities for students to have fun and socialize throughout the week,

including an afternoon in the sun at Wascana Pool. The week came to a grand conclusion with the enthusiasti-

cally received performances of the Concertos with winners accompanied by an ensemble of faculty and senior

students, the well prepared performances of the Young Artist Ensembles and the pleasing performances of the

RSS Orchestras ending with an energetic fiddle tune encore led by the Young Artists.

In conjunction with the day camp, Regina Summer Strings presented evening public chamber concerts at

Westminster Church. The Annex String Quartet performed on Thursday, July 4, and on Friday, July 5, the

RSS Faculty performed with the Annex String Quartet. Both concerts gave students the exciting opportunity

to see their instructors as performers.

The 2013 Regina Summer Strings was another successful learning event for young string players in the Regina

and surrounding area. The organizing committee would like future camps to continue to offer students the en-

hanced training opportunity provided by an accomplished guest quartet. In addition, the committee would like

to involve young artists from outside the Regina area. The committee will be working throughout the year to

access funds to accomplish these goals and continue to provide unique musical learning opportunities to the

province’s young string players in the 2014 season.


How Parents Can Enrich Their Child’s Music Education, Part 3

by Wayne Toews

Setting skill benchmarks

The new school term provides the opportunity to measure the skill level of players so that benchmarks can be

established for comparison throughout and at the end of the term. Although skill level doesn’t indicate musi-

cal growth it can provide young players with challenges to capture their attention and focus their practice and

effort.

How long can you sustain a downbow and upbow with good tone? The goal is to reach at least one minute

in each direction. To begin, try to sustain good tone for 10 seconds. The bow motion is made in a slight

arc. Of course the shorter bass and cello bows make the challenge even greater.

How many groups of four notes can you play in 15 seconds? Use an open string. A group of four notes

sounds like the word “Manitoba”. Good technique allows you to play very rapidly without tension. Find

the spot in the bow that will allow the elbow opening to be rapid and relaxed. The motion is in a small cir-

cle with slight flexing of the fingers and wrist. Any number over 40 is excellent. More advanced players

can extend the technique to “sautillé” bowing. http://www.violinmasterclass.com/en/masterclasses/right-

hand/sautille

How many groups of three notes can you play in 15 seconds? A group of sixteenth notes sounds like the

word “seventy”.

How many string crossings can you play in 15 seconds? Begin downbow on the lower string as well as

downbow on the upper string. For example down on the D-string then up on the A-string as well as down

on the A-string then up on the D-string. The technique is similar to that above for one string except that

the circular pattern of the hand is slightly larger. The exercise is made even more difficult by playing the

sequence D-A-F#-A where the open D and A strings are used and the F# is played on the D-string. This is

the pattern used in several fiddle songs including “Devil’s Dream”.

How many times can you play a one-octave major scale, ascending and descending, in a single downbow

or upbow? Begin with a D major scale. As you progress, play scales that use all four fingering patterns.

Play in tune, a one-octave major scale, ascending and descending on one string using only the index finger

of the left hand. Make it more challenging by playing each note pizzicato with the little finger of the left

hand. Advanced players can add the challenge of playing fingered harmonics.

On the D string how many times in 15 seconds can you play the slurred sequence D E F# G A G F# E D

(Fingering: 0 1 2 3 4 3 2 1 0)? Cellists play D E F# G F# E D (Fingering: 0 1 3 4 3 1 0). Bassists play D E

F# E D (Fingering: 0 1 4 1 0).

How many trill alternations can you play in 10 seconds between the first and second fingers, the second

and third fingers and the third and fourth fingers? Of course, cellists and bassists need to make adaptations

to suit their instruments. Try other combinations such as first to third finger and second to fourth finger.

Play the following sequence: E (on the D string) in first position then shift up to play the E an octave high-

er on the D string using the first finger alone. Still using only the index finger shift downward to F#, the

second note of the scale, then shift upward to the high E, the second pitch that was played. Continue ….

http://www.violinmasterclass.com/en/masterclasses/right-hand/sautille

http://www.violinmasterclass.com/en/masterclasses/right-hand/sautille


through the pattern – lowE-highE, lowF#-highE, lowG#-highE, lowA-highE, lowB-highE, lowC#-highE,

lowD#- highE then sustain the high E. Reverse the pattern beginning on the upper pitch and shifting

downward: highE-lower D#, highE-lowC#, highE-lowB, highE -lowA, highE- lowG#, highE-lowF#,

highE-lowE

Make the shifts rapid and clean (no smearing/glissando)

Write your scores for each of the skills and record your progress throughout the year.

Saskatoon Suzuki Strings Offers More in 2013-14

The Saskatoon Suzuki String Program has been operating in Saskatoon for over 25 years and continues to pro-

vide musical instruction in string instruments to children of all ages. The Program follows the principles of the

internationally recognized Suzuki method of music education. Music educator, Dr. Shinichi Suzuki, developed

these principles in Japan.

This fall, we will continue our program, consisting of one-on-one, weekly individual lessons with a private

teacher and weekly group lessons. Our students will have an opportunity, as they learn to read music and de-

velop more technical skills, to join one of the Program’s two orchestras. Throughout the year, there will con-

tinue to be group and orchestra performance opportunities at local community events.

In 2013-14, Saskatoon Suzuki Strings Program has established a third orchestra, Saskatoon Prairie Strings.

This orchestra is open to more advanced students who are high-school aged or older. Adults who have compa-

rable skills in playing violin, viola, cello or double bass are welcome to join this orchestra. The creation of this

orchestra has been enthusiastically welcomed by current and former Suzuki students.

Fifteen musicians were enrolled in the Saskatoon Prairie Strings orchestra when it met for the first time in Sep-

tember. Musicians in this orchestra range between the ages of 14 to 30 years.

A brand new, one-day Beginners’ Workshop was held on September 7, 2013 at McClure United Church. The

workshop was geared towards children between the ages 4 and 10 years old who have never played a string

instrument before. The purpose of the workshop was to provide the participants with a hands-on introduction

to our Program. Students learned some basic elements of playing both violin and cello, including songs,

games and music used in our regular Program.

Fourteen young children, along with their parents, participated in our first Beginners’ Workshop. All partici-

pants at the workshop had a wonderful time. The positive feedback from so many parents confirms that we are

on the right track with this initiative. We received some excellent suggestions on how to enhance the experi-

ence in the future.

Saskatoon Suzuki Strings is planning to add an early childhood music program for children under four years

old. This will be a pre-Suzuki, parent-and-tot program that will prepare the youngest children to join private

and group lessons. We are looking at starting this new component of our Program in January 2014.

Fund-raising is an essential fact of life in operating an affordable and diverse musical education program such

as is provided by Saskatoon Suzuki Strings. We will be holding a dessert night evening on October 24 where

our Suzuki students will demonstrate their talents beyond playing a string instrument. Our annual fund-raising

Heartstrings Gala will be held on February 1, 2014 when our orchestras will perform. Our annual garage sale

is scheduled for May 10, 2014. On August 30 and 31, 2013, we raised funds for our Program by serving as

green-team volunteers for the PotashCorp Fireworks Festival.

Saskatoon Youth Orchestra Update By Paul Sinkewicz

As a passionate Saskatoon Youth Orchestra parent and board member, one of the most frustrating things to

hear is: “I didn’t even know we had a youth orchestra in town.”

Visibility is difficult to achieve with coverage of local arts in the media shrinking and a very limited advertis-

ing budget. So we got creative.

The Saskatoon Youth Orchestra decided to take our message directly to the people this past summer by enter-

ing a float in the annual Saskatoon Exhibition Parade.

The audience for the parade – moved this year to a

Saturday to draw more families – was estimated at

50,000 people. It was also televised twice on the

Shaw community channel, increasing the expo-

sure.

SYO Music Director Richard Carnegie has been

programming music to attract young ears to our

concerts, so following on his efforts with the

theme “The SYO Loves the Movies” was a natu-

ral.

Our float was made up of two identical white Cadillac Devilles festooned with glittering musical notes, instru-

ments to represent the winds, brass, percussion and strings elements of the orchestra, and even a 35mm au-

thentic movie reel. We also used a loudspeaker system to play movie theme music, much to the delight of the

crowd. To draw more attention to our float, the SYO invited the local costume enthusiasts group Justice

League Saskatoon to walk with our members, all dressed as characters from their favourite movies.

While the effort of organizing and creating a float was substantial, the cost was not! The SYO spent under

$300 and made a huge splash. We also came away with four new outdoor signs created for the event and avail-

able for future use.

Many cheers, smiling nods and instances of spontaneous applause along the parade route provided the evi-

dence that the effort was worthwhile. Now we will try to keep building awareness in the community so in the

future we can hear: “Oh, the SYO! My kid wants to join that someday.”

Another new initiative the SYO is undertaking this season is a series of workshops aimed at reducing playing

injuries among our musicians.

Bruce Craven, of Craven Sport Services, will be analyzing posture, recommending sitting positions and core

strengthening exercises, and advising our players on how to prevent repetitive motion injuries. Craven is a

Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, Director of Athlete Services for the Sport Medicine and Sci-

ence Council of Saskatchewan, an associate clinical professor in the School of Physical Therapy at the Univer-

sity of Saskatchewan, as well as a sessional lecturer in the College of Kinesiology. He trains Olympic calibre

athletes and has worked with individual professional musicians in the past.

The SYO is anxious to share the information that comes out of this program with the entire musical communi-

ty, so stay tuned for updates!
