(Mar 3/09) Started to talk to one of my students today about music theory: notes, chords, keys, the Nashville numbering system, and stuff like that. Was neat to see her leave here excited by this information. Really, we should all learn this in school. The language of music should be more accessible to us. We should all be included in singing, playing, reading, writing, understanding the building blocks that make up the sonic textures of the music we listen to... this thing that makes life more enjoyable and more meaningful, and connects us to each other.
