Building Music Making Steadily Over Time: The Twelve-Year Plan


Listen Later

Have you ever thought about what it will take to play an instrument?  Do you think it will take a short amount of time or a long amount of time?  Maybe a better question is--Who are you trying to impress with your music making?  CMajor will talk to you about making music for the long term.  She recently spoke with a jazz musician who stated that music making is just tied to listening.  "Just put on some records and listen...and you'll be fine."  I agreed with him.  That's one way to make music and strengthen your auditory skills and learning.  But, what if your goal is to become a strong reader in 'paper' music.  CMajor recently read about a reading device that follows the eye movement of musicians, e.g. pianists as they sit at the piano and play and read from a score.  This episode is for anyone looking to build their music making over a long time.  What will it take to gradually learn and let music sink in over the years.  CMajor will talk to you about what a twelve-year plan looks like in comparison to a twelve-week plan.  You don't want to miss this episode.  See you soon!
