Abstract
The primary purpose of this paper is to serve as a capstone for the course work and activities involved with the Master of Music in Jazz Pedagogy degree. This paper will examine instructional methods and strategies to be utilized in both classroom and rehearsal settings at the secondary level. A variety of modeling and demonstration techniques will be explored, specifically in the areas of improvisation, interpretation of jazz style (based primarily on this author's aural and written research in jazz history), and rhythm section techniques. Brief descriptions of the philosophies and concepts upon which the given teaching strategies are based will also be included. Those pieces, performers, and composers featured on the corequisite jazz pedagogy recital will serve as the primary examples for discussion.
