PRELIMINARY SESSION PREVIEW: SESSION 1 (ORIENTATION TO APPLIED MUSIC.)
WHY
APPLIED
MUSIC…?
Discipline is said to be
the most valuable result of all Education; that is, to make one do what he
ought to do and when it ought to be done, whether they like it or not.
Educators argue that this should be the first lesson that ought to be learnt
but that however early a man’s training begins in life, it is this lesson that
he learns last thoroughly. This means, one has not truly been thoroughly
educated until they learn discipline! Yet discipline is a life-long process,
which can only be ensured by its twin character: resilience!
Research has shown that
of all earthly subjects (studies), applied music has the greatest potential to
instill and develop both discipline and resilience. Applied Music is not theory
of Music, the Theory of Music is concerned with the acquisition of knowledge
(information) of the Art; Applied Music on the other hand, is concerned with
skillful practice translating knowledge into experience (wisdom) of the Art;
thus wisdom to bring every word of theory into imaginative creativity- The Art
of Musical Performance!
A true Educational
curriculum should not imprison the mind, but rather feed it and fuel the
imaginative creativity thereof! Thus the highest form of discipline to be got
from music must be sought from a ‘discipline-oriented’ applied musical
curriculum, whose driving force and goal is to fuel the imaginative creativity
of the mind, allowing it to blossom, thus becoming all that God would have it
become. It is to this end, that we have designed the Applied Musical Program.
