Abstract | This study, a replication and extension of work by Norris (2004), examined sight-reading requirements at middle and high school large-group band festivals across the United States. As in the earlier investigation, answers to the following questions were solicited from all 50 states: (1) Are there ratings-based large-group band festivals? (2) Is sight-reading required? (3) Are there specific classifications or levels of proficiency? (4) Is musical content specified for each level? (5) Are sight-reading and performance scores combined for an overall rating? Results showed that fewer than half of all states mandate sight-reading at large-group ratings-based band festivals at both the middle and high school levels. An even smaller number of states specify difficulty levels, stipulate musical content, and include the sight-reading score in an overall final rating. Frequency of affirmative responses to all questions was consistently higher at the high school level. (Contains 2 tables.) (As Provided). |
