Idea Bank: Chamber Music within the Large Ensemble
Neidlinger, Erica
Music Educators Journal, v97 n3 p22-23 Mar 2011

However, they rarely think of the large ensemble as myriad chamber interactions. Rehearsals become more productive when greater responsibility for music-making is placed on the individual student. This article presents some ways music educators can engage a large ensemble in chamber-like interactions.
