Abstract
Abstract If studying and teaching classical music relies a lot on the use of scores, the pop-rock-jazz genres have a different approach, from using a large variety of score-types to not using at all. Pupils from secondary schools and high schools practice pop-rock-jazz, either on their own or coordinated by a music teacher, in which case it is fairly expected for them to be familiarized with the types of scores that can be found in these genres. However, many band teachers prefer using demonstration as a method, some of them claiming that the scores limit the creativity. It is true that music notation in these genres is not standardized. In this article, we will cover the most common approaches for integrating music notation in jazz-pop-rock band teaching.
