Description: Music Progressions is a KMTA-sponsored program that is designed to be a suggested curriculum of independent music study. The annual evaluation measures a student’s progress in all areas of musicianship. This non-competitive program consists of ten progressive levels. Each level requires proficiency in performance, music terminology, rhythm and pulse development, sight-playing, scales, written theory and ear-training. Students receive a certificate of participation, a ribbon, written adjudicator’s critique, and results from music listening and theory tests.
Rules: Students may enter at any level. Participation is not based on year in school or years of music study. Students enroll in one level for all categories. Because this space does not allow for the detailed explanations of requirements and options for each level, please refer to the Music Progressions Curriculum Guide. It is available to download at www.ksmta.org. Also available is the Music Progressions Resource Handbook, a teacher’s manual that contains resources and suggestions to help prepare students for the event.
All Levels Include:
• Performance—one memorized solo & one solo, contrasting style, memory optional. There are no restrictions on repertoire; method book pieces and arrangements are allowed.
• Music Understanding, Vocabulary, Functional Skills, Sightplaying, Listening & Written Theory—see Music Progressions Curriculum Guide for details for each level.
Eligibility and Fees: Students of all ages are eligible to enter. Registration is $30.00 per student. A non-member fee of $75 will be charged for teachers who are not current KCMTA members. To enter students, please return a copy of the Music Progressions enrollment form, one check made payable to KCMTA and the teacher work form. Visit kcmta.org for enrollment form and teacher work form. Teachers may choose to enter students at either or both locations.
