    With regard to a Middle School Music Curriculum, “performing”

    is an artistic process that embraces 5 critical elements:

    1) Selecting... artistic works or repertoire to perform

    2) Analyzing... structure and composition

    3) Interpreting... the expressive intent of the composer

    4) Rehearsing/Evaluating/Refining... all the details and nuances of each selection through independently developed cognitive knowledge and motor skills.

    5) Presenting... the selections that are sufficiently prepared to be ‘brought back to life’ for an assembled audience
