Music is everything to me. I go to a performing arts school in Utah and I made it into the advanced orchestra there. One of the main reasons I ditched my auditioned commitment is because I felt that the teacher didn't do much to teach us to appreciate the music we were playing or help us have fun. Music is supposed to be fun but in that class, because of the atmosphere and the attitude of everyone, it felt like work and it didn't make me look forward to playing with them as I used to in middle school.
This is a good video. Unfortunately music education is in trouble because music educators do not instill any respect or appreciation for music in their students. They do not want to waste any precious rehearsal time teaching music appreciation to their students. When those students become adults, they do not respect or appreciate instrumental music, listen to recordings of instrumental music, attend live performances of instrumental music, or actively support music education. It's very sad.
