....I've taught plenty of 8th graders, and none of them...NONE...had the proper development to play Broughton...which is quite different than Air and Bouree. I'm having problems right now with a band director who expects all his students to play a jury each semester based on the state MEA grading system...Juniors play a grade five piece in the fall, and grade six in the spring...regardless of their actual ability. This just teaches many of the students to hack away badly at a piece that is too hard for them. Play something easier....and play it GREAT.
