WV Music Education
Guidance for Secondary Instrumental Repertoire
In conjunction with the guidance provided in the WVDE document "Building a Comprehensive Arts Program," it was felt that some guidance should be provided to novice teachers of band and orchestra to guide selection of exemplary repertoire for the secondary instrumental ensemble. Two documents have been prepared, one for band and the other for orchestra:
Recommended Repertoire - Band
Recomennded Repertoire - Orchestra
The WV Department of Education's Arts Coordinator is a liaison to the WV Music Educators Association (WVMEA), state affiliate of the National Association for Music Education (NAfME) Information regarding the state's annual conference and the All State music activities can be found on this site.
