Making of Musicians the Rhythmic Method, of Teaching Music (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A foundational guide to teaching music that puts feeling and artistry first.

This thoughtful volume argues that true musicianship grows from a pupil’s inner sense of art, not just from mechanical drills or exam results. It explains why education should elevate the artistic instinct and why the language of music must be felt before it is read on the page.

The text surveys how to structure music education from early childhood, emphasizing the primacy of ear, tone, and expression. It discusses methods that balance vocal and instrumental training, the role of notation, and how to connect rhythm, phrasing, and key sense to a living musical experience. The goal is to cultivate a learner who understands music as art, not merely as a set of symbols to be memorized.

• Prioritizes the development of the pupil’s artistic nature before intellectual analysis.
• Encourages feeling, rhythm, and phrasing as the foundation for notation and theory.
• Guides teaching approaches for both singing and instrumental work, with attention to key sense and harmony.
• Advises a gradual path where notation follows a strong, felt musical understanding.

Ideal for teachers shaping music education, and for readers seeking a principled approach to fostering genuine musicality.
