Practicing Music Theory Over the Summer:  How Do You Do That?  CMajor has some ideas for helping you think through your music making.  "Music is made out of fixed sounds like those produced by the keys on a keyboard.  Each key produces its own sound--a sound which is higher or lower than the sounds produced by any of the other keys--and it always produces the same sound.  Different types of instruments produce their sounds in different ways but it is easiest to understand how musical notes are arranged and named by looking at a keyboard."  Recently, CMajor ran into someone who wanted to know more about CMajor's teaching background.  I was able to share with the person the journey that had brought me to where I am today in my own music-making and helping others to stay on their music making paths.  It was an interesting conversation.  Sometimes people just want to be reassured that the efforts they've made and things they have chosen to do with music were the right things for them.  I'm always happy to reassure my students that when it comes to music-making, there is no right or wrong way to do it.  Just do it.  See you on the next episode!
