TRUE MUSIC - FALSE MUSIC |
|
| Music can be true or false. | |
| This is true of the simplest and most complex music. | |
| False music can be interesting, even fascinating, | |
| and is often trendy. | |
| False music can be entertaining | |
| When it is shocking, it is like a hairdo or clothes. | |
| False music is all about style. | |
| True music is balanced, eternal. | |
| True music does not need to entertain, but may. | |
| If it is shocking, it is like seeing a beating heart. | |
| True music transcends style. | |
| False music displays. | |
| True music reveals. | |
| Any kind of music can be invented. | |
| True music sounds discovered. | |
| - "What to listen for in the world" by Bruce Adolphe. | |
| In order to expose students to true music, the students must understand and demonstrate musical skills. The documents listed below are the state EALR's for music, or Rather the Essential Academic Learning Requirements. We are constantly working to not only teach these skills, but all skills needed to become an independent thinking, socially responsible, and ethically strong musician and citizen. If you have any questions about what we work on in the classroom, please email me or call me at 573-2544. | |
