Horn Concertos

The intent of this article is to present four approaches to teaching recorded music. With the tools described in these articles, students became very interested in Mozart and the music he wrote. Movement, a teacher prepared map, student maps, and the rhythm score are the bases for the following lessons. Gloria Nelson, Judy Suvak, and Marilyn Winter use Mozart’s Horn Concerto in E flat major, K.495, 3rd movement while Peggy Bennett uses Horn Concerto in E flat major, K. 447, 3rd Movement. In each plan for study, numerous repetitions of the music allow students to become very familiar with the music. This is imperative if students are to become personally involved with a particular piece of music.
