Music Life Lesson #12: The Love of Music

Because of it’s close connection to our psyche, we often use music to affect our mood. And it works. An emotion can be felt by a composer who then writes it down musically. A performer brings the printed page to life interjecting his or her personal perspectives along the way. The listener reacts to the music in a physical, emotional and/or spiritual manner and is changed due to this interaction.

Music Life Lesson #11: Connecting Emotion

The craft of music is generally taught prior to the art of music. Students begin their studies at an age where an appreciation for music’s humanity has not yet been developed. (Some never achieve this). It is our duty as educators to assist student musicians in connecting their personal expression and emotions to what may be to them simply a physical and mental exercise.
