Band 8/9 Playing Tests BUGS Individual test – FEBRUARY 25 Flutes – measures 15-24 Clarinets – measures 15-24 Saxophone – measures 15-24 Trumpets – measures 15-21, 32-44 Trombones – measures 15-21, 32-44 Ensemble test (one on a part) – MARCH 4 EVERYONE – measures 79-93 CATEGORY Sound Quality Exemplary Tone is always focused, clear, and centered throughout the range of the instrument. Tone has professional quality. Proficient Tone is consistently focused, clear, and centered throughout the range of the instrument. Tone has professional quality. Satisfactory Tone is focused, clear and centered through the normal playing range of the instrument. Extremes in range sometimes cause tone to be less controlled. Tone quality typically does Basic Tone is often focused, clear and centered, but sometimes the tone is uncontrolled in the normal playing range. Extremes in range are usually uncontrolled. Occasionally the tone quality detracts from Emerging The tone is often not focused, clear or centered regardless of the range being played, significantly detracting from the overall performance.

Wrong notes consistently detract from the performance. The beat is somewhat erratic. Some rhythms are accurate. Frequent or repeated duration errors. Rhythm problems occasionally detract from the overall performance. Attacks are rarely secure, but markings are often executed accurately as directed by the score and/or the conductor. The beat is usually erratic and rhythms are seldom accurate detracting significantly from the overall performance. Few secure attacks. Markings are typically not executed accurately.

Shows Note Accuracy Notes are always accurate. Notes are consistently accurate. Rhythm The beat is always secure and the rhythms are accurate for the style of music being played. The beat is secure and the rhythms are accurate for the style of music being played. The beat is secure and the rhythms are mostly accurate. There are a few duration errors, but these do not detract from the overall performance. Articulations Secure attacks. Markings (staccato, legato, slur, accents, etc.) are always executed accurately as directed by the score and/or the conductor. Dynamic levels are always obvious, consistent, and an accurate interpretation of the style of music being played. No errors. Pitch is always very accurate. Secure attacks. Markings (staccato, legato, slur, accents, etc.) are executed accurately as directed by the score and/or the conductor. Attacks are usually secure, though there might be an isolated error. Markings are executed accurately as directed by the score and/or the conductor. Dynamic levels are typically accurate and consistent. Virtually no errors. Pitch is very accurate. An occasional isolated error, but most of the time pitch is accurate and secure. Some accurate pitches, but there are frequent and/or repeated errors. Very few accurate or secure pitches. Posture is always accurate. Posture is consistently accurate. An occasional inaccurate posture is used, but does not detract from overall Inconsistent posture, somewhat detracting from the overall Posture is always inconsistent and detracts from the performance.
