MUSIC IS...
Music is a science.
It is exact, specific, and it demands exact acoustics. A conductor's
full score is a chart, a graph that indicates frequencies, intensities,
volume changes, melody and harmony all at once and with the most exact
control of time.
Music is mathematical.
It is rhythmically based on the subdivision of time into fractions that
must be done instantaneously, not worked out on paper.
Music is a foreign language.
It is a highly developed kind of shorthand that uses symbols to
represent ideas. Music is the most complete and universal language.
Music is History.
Music usually reflects the environment and times of its creation.
Music is physical education.
It requires fantastic coordination and control of all muscle groups
allowing the musician to respond instantly to the sound the ear hears
and the mind interprets.
Music is all of these things, but most of all, Music is Art.
It allows a human being to express and evoke emotion.
That is why we teach and participate in music.
Not because we expect you or your children to major in music. But, so
you will be able to play or sing all your life. So you will recognize
beauty. So you will be human.
Most of all music is love.
Love of family, and love of community.
