Westminster Faculty Forum Continues Discussion on Musical Growth

Posted on Friday, November 19, 2004

Dr. Tad Greig, director of bands at Westminster College, will present "The Rehearsal Classroom: Providing Tools for Musical Construction" at Faculty Forum Wednesday, Dec. 1, at 11:45 a.m. in the Sebastian Mueller Theater located in the McKelvey Campus Center.

 "The performance classroom is more than preparing for concerts," Greig said.  "It's providing the tools necessary for musical growth and understanding.  I will focus on the warm-up period of a rehearsal and the skill development within. 

 "The key element in the procedure is the development of each student's ability to make decisions and adjustments.  The forum also exposes ensemble rehearsal and the academic rigor involved in developing musicianship."

 Greig, who has been with Westminster College since 1995, earned his undergraduate degree from Grove City College, his master's from Youngstown State University, and his Ph.D. from Kent State University.

 The event is free and open to the public.  For more information, contact Greig at (724) 946-7279 or e-mail greigrt@westminster.edu.
