| Abstract | The purpose of this research was to examine K-12 band directors' perceptions of tradition and their thoughts on their and the profession's readiness for change. The research questions were: a) What practices do band directors view as more traditional, somewhat traditional, and less traditional?; b) From their current practice, how willing are participants to change toward more and less-traditional practices (as defined by participants)?; and c) How do band directors perceive the profession's readiness for change? Respondents were 1,832 band directors from across the United States. Results indicated a strong consensus of what constitutes tradition in band that supports descriptions in the scholarly literature. Band directors viewed change as necessary but seemed reticent to initiate change in their practice. Respondents noted a lack of instructional time as a primary barrier to enacting change in their practice. It appears band directors' agency to preserve tradition or enact change may be more nuanced than the current national discussion allows. (As Provided). |
