For Unto Us - cue assignment

Some advice, tips and information for the Cue Test on Wednesday: 

1. Breath with the entering part.
2. Use left hand (L.H.) for every primary cue
3. Make sure that you involve the L.H. early and not as an afterthought.

 Primary cues: 

Primary cues to get: m. 7, 12, 13, 14, 18, 19, 20, 26, 28, 30, 33, 34

 Secondary cues: 

 Indicate every "S" cutoff that you can: m. 11, m. 15, 17, 21, 23 **do not worry about "s" cutoff in m. 24-25 Get the "D" cutoff here on the beat: m. 32, 35

Other notes:

I will NOT be using a recording this Wednesday.

  • Minium tempo:  Quarter note = 80 b.p.m.
  • Maximum tempo:  Quarter note = 105 b.p.m.
  • Your ability to keep a steady beat will be 15% of the grade.
  • I will use the grading sheet below for each student.
