YEARS EXPERIENCE RATING SYSTEM

  • .5 = 1/2 Year Experience
  • 1 = 1 Year
  • 1.5 = 1 1/2 Years
  • 2 = 2 Years
  • 2.5 = 2 1/2 Years
  • 3 = 3 Years
  • Experience Ratings are based on the general music skills found in each OSFABB arrangement and how those music skills compare to a course of study found in most band method books.  The music rating number is about how long it takes the average music student to achieve the skills to play a certain OSFABB Music arrangement.
  • Depending on the band situation at your school and how quickly you move through your band book the ratings may seem a little high or low. 
  • Ratings are generally, but not always, based on the most difficult music elements found in each OSFABB arrangement. 
  • Music Elements include: Range of Notes(high or Low), Rhythms, Accidentals, Key Signatures and Time Signatures.
