Harmony Director for Mindful Performance

Help me give my students a Harmony Director for use in the high school Band Room. This keyboard is an invaluable teaching and performance tool that not only helps students play in time, but also more in tune.

My Students

The students of our high school band program are some of the best students in the school. The majority of students are not only involved in the band but also athletic and academic activities.

A large portion of students that are in the band are on the free and reduced lunch program, meaning that many students use school-owned instruments for which there is no designated repair and maintenance budget.

This means that many students have to play on instruments that aren't in optimal playing conditions.

My Project

The Yamaha Harmony Director has become the industry standard of a teaching tool for secondary band programs. This tool allows the director, or a student leading the class, to quickly change between transpositions of instruments and temperaments as well as having an easy to use metronome with every subdivision we might ever need.

This tool helps students not only experience, but also enhance their ability to play not just their individual notes in tune, but also their notes in the chord as it relates to the other members of the band.

This tool will also allow for easier student leadership if I (the teacher) am gone and keep the students playing their instruments and remaining engaged while a substitute teacher is present, rather than having them do a worksheet or watch a movie.
