In addition, the study employed a researcher–designed survey instrument to examine whether Western Australian music teachers perceived these principles to be evident in their practical experiences of the new WACE music course.
It involved a literature review which sought to produce a set of principles for teaching and learning frameworks based upon international best practice in music education, and applicable in the unique geographical, historical and multicultural WA context. This study investigates the principles which should form the basis of an effective, post-compulsory music curriculum, suitable for WA. Given criticism levelled at its process of creation and implementation, the researcher questions whether the WACE Music course embodies effective, recognised principles to support the effective teaching and learning of music. Following a convoluted process of creation, its implementation into classrooms has been problematic. This document will provide a foundation for further studies by euphonium scholars, and benefit the music academy in Brazil, due to the newness of the research.Ī new post-compulsory Music course known as the Western Australian Certificate of Education (WACE) Music course was recently introduced into Year 11and 12 in Western Australian (WA) schools. Also, the improvement and variety of the original repertoire after the 2000s deserves documentation, through the creation of an annotated bibliography.
However, there is no research that has been dedicated to the history of the instrument in Brazil, its participation in ensembles and genres, and its collaborative performers and composers. The euphonium is already considered as unique in institutions and music festivals, and concert music composers are increasing their interest in the multiple facets of this sweet-voiced instrument. The instrument is an essential part of traditional Brazilian music such as the wind bands and popular genres. Both the timeline and the bibliography present original research. The document consists of a timeline of the euphonium in the country, and an annotated bibliography of selected solo and chamber works that employ the instrument, written by Brazilian composers. This research illustrates the development of the euphonium in Brazil.
