Description: The Steel Pan is an chromatic idiophone musical instrument that was developed during the early 20th Century in the country of Trinidad and Tobago. These instruments are made out of 55-gallon steel oil drums by professional pan makers. Steel pans come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and numbers. Typical steel pan instrumentation has 4 voices: Lead Pans use one drum and are the soprano voice, Double Second pans use two drums and are the alto voice, Cello pans use three drums and are the tenor voice, and Bass pans use 6 full-sized drums and are the bass voice. The higher the voice of the instrument, the more notes fit on each pan; a lead pan might contain 29 notes on one pan, whereas a bass pan contains only 3 notes on each pan. Steel pans are played using small wooden sticks that have rubber tips. Examples: • KIPP Austin College Prep 7th Grade Steel Pan Ensembles " www.jaycarlin.com/videos Size: 4 to 30+ students Repertoire: Purchasing sheet music written specifically for steel pan ensemble might be more difficult than for percussion ensemble. Additionally, any existing steel pan music is often for high school, college, or professional ensembles; there are not many pieces for beginning steel pan ensemble. Any piece written for SATB, such as choir pieces, would 4arrange quite nicely for steel pan ensemble, and having a teacher arrange music themselves should be a simpler task than arranging for full percussion ensemble. Pros: Steel pan bands have exploded in popularity over the past few decades. Starting with university pan ensembles and then followed by high school pan ensembles, it is now possible to find high-quality middle school and elementary school pan ensembles. Steel pans have a very sweet sound, and blend very well to make a wide range of music sound great. They are likely better-suited to playing popular music styles, though classical arrangements for pan ensembles exist and also do quite well. Steel pans are easier to store and move than percussion ensemble instruments like a marimba. A steel pan ensemble also opens many opportunities to teaching across disciplines, as the history of pan is relatively well-documented. Students could learn a lot about the rich history and diverse musical genres of the Caribbean --Trinidad and Tobago in particular -- in conjunction with a performance ensemble. Steel pans are accessible to students of any age. Cons: Steel pans require more upkeep and maintenance than other types of percussion instruments. Even when they are exquisitely care for, pans need to be tuned a few times a year if they are being used daily. Tuning requires a professional tuner to come and tune each pan, which can often costs upwards of $500 for a few hours of work. If a steel pan is dropped or hit too hard by a mallet, one or more notes could be knocked out of tune instantly. For this reason, steel pan might be best suited to more mature students, and much care must be paid by the teacher to ensure that students understand proper steel pan care. Approximate Cost: A basic setup of one of each of the types of pans would cost $8,300, and would accommodate 4 students. The ensemble in the video above has 10 Leads, 6 Double Seconds, 3 Cellos, and 3 Basses. Setting up an ensemble like this, which would accommodate approximately 30 students when auxiliary percussion is included, could cost upwards of $35,000. This would not include stands or mallets, though unlike many other ensembles, steel pan stands and mallets are quite easy to make. Many pan makers offer very attractive school discounts, and purchasing an entire set might be significantly less expensive than buying individual pans. Lead Pan: $1,195! ! Double Second: $1,595 Triple Cello: $2,495!! Six Bass: $2,995 Further Reading: Lawson, S. G. (1991).

Description: A Brazilian ensemble is one example of a course designed to introduce students to the music genres of a specific region or country. Brazil is an extremely diverse country that plays host to countless music genres that are often closely tied with the geography, history, and demographics of Brazil. A Brazilian course could introduce students to the history, geography, and demographics of Brazil. These humanities could be anchored by listening and learning to recognize the Brazilian genres of Choro, Samba, Bossa Nova, Tropicalia, Coco, Pagode, Forró, Maracatu, Mangue Beat, Sertanejo, Tecnobrega, and MPB. From these lectures, readings, and listening examples, students and teachers could choose genres to play themselves, even putting on a concert for the community. Size: At least 10 to potentially 100ʼs of students Repertoire: Arrangements for Brazilian ensemble are rare. As there is a wide variety of genres being studied, the ease of arranging a piece for an ensemble would vary. Samba is widely viewed as being the “national music of Brazil”, so it would make sense 6to expose students to performing samba at the very least. Other genres could be explored based on student abilities; for example, if there was a particularly strong piano or guitar player in the class, students could explore playing a Bossa Nova, or if students could play a fiddle, perhaps learning a Forró would make sense. Some of these styles, such as Coco, do not require any instruments at all, but instead can be arranged around body percussion. Pros: A region-specific course such as a Brazilian ensemble provides opportunities for both performance experience and conceptual learning to occur, empowering student learning through a wider range of standards than is possible with a performance-only course. Whereas most performance ensembles focus mostly on standards about singing or playing, reading music, and occasionally improvising music, a Brazilian ensemble could focus on all of the national standards. Instrumentation for many styles of Brazilian music like samba are inexpensive, sturdy, and portable. Many Brazilian music styles, especially those being suggested for students to perform, are extremely accessible to beginners. Because of the diversity of the instruments used in samba, some parts will be substantially simpler for a beginner than others, while a more experienced player can be challenged with a harder part, or even tasked with leading the ensemble. A wide range of abilities can be accommodated. Also, Brazilian Samba schools can number in the 100ʼs. There is no particular size limitation for samba, and coupled with the relatively inexpensive cost to purchase instruments, samba and other Brazilian styles are excellent for schools on a budget. Cons: Teaching a Brazilian ensemble may require more specialized knowledge than a typical music teacher may possess. Also, the scope of a “Brazilian music course” is extremely broad; decisions about what to include and especially what not to include would be up to both the class and the teacher, which could make planning difficult. As many genres of Brazilian music involve singing and playing, teachers and students might be expected to do both, which can also be a benefit. Lyrics for these pieces will often be in Portuguese, although some genres such as Bossa Nova have translated English lyrics that were written by the original artists. Approximate Cost: Samba: Surdo: $220 • Repinique: $110 • Caixa: $100 • Tamborim: $40 • Shakers: $25 • Agogo: $25 Approximate cost of samba instruments for a class of 30: $2500 Additional Instruments for Other Brazilian Styles: Pandeiro: $70 • Cavaquinho: $220 • Guitar: $100
