Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Crude Conditions in American Musical Education The following item was recently seen in a well-known German periodical: "There are upwards of one hundred Americans now in Germany endeavoring to finish a musical education which was never begun." This, in more dignified phraseology, means that, from the German point of view, American musical training or education is lacking in the fundamentals. There are scores of piano players who possess a good degree of keyboard facility and many singers who possess considerable vocal facility, to whom a page of unfamiliar music is little better than a blank page, except as they ascertain how it sounds by playing it. The sight conveys no idea to them of the sound. Many readers will exclaim: "How could any one be expected to know how it sounds until it is heard?" This question alone is quite sufficient to prove the soundness of the German criticism just quoted. It also reveals the cause, - namely, a deep popular ignorance of what constitutes the true foundation of a musical education. No such degree of ignorance exists as to what constitutes the foundation of a literary, scientific, or business education. Therefore no one thinks of sending a child to a teacher of English grammar before that child has learned to read and write. If one could imagine such as absurdity, he could also imagine that there could be found teachers who would undertake the task. "How Absurd!"

Download or read book Growing Up Complete written by National Commission on Music Education (U.S.) and published by R&L Education. This book was released on 1991 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is part of a national campaign for music education that aims to focus the nation's attention on the pressing need to include music and the other arts at the center of the school curriculum. The credo of this campaign is, "Just as there can be no music without learning, no education is complete without music." The meaning of this credo is spelled out in this report through a four-part argument. In chapter 1, "Our Culture Is Dying," the contention is made that through inattention to music and the other arts in schools, the nation is dehumanizing its own people--and particularly the children--not by design but by default. It is argued that music has intrinsic value for the learner, and that a knowledge of music is essential to an educated human being. In chapter 2,"Education Without Music," evidence is explored that music education is being pushed to the periphery in schools. Chapter 3, "Education With Music," underscores two areas of interest: first, the new, pathbreaking areas of research on the nature of intelligence and brain function that are linked to music; and second, the significant contributions that music education can make to all of education beyond its intrinsic value. Finally, in chapter 4, "Making It Happen: Mounting a National Effort," there is discussion of ways of putting the credo to work, including linking the benefits of music education to a national advocacy effort to bring music and the other arts to their basic role in U.S. education. Two appendices are included: list of witnesses before the National Commission on Music Education, and a list of endorsing and supporting organizations. (DB)
