On this episode of Rock School Proprietor Podcast, John Kozicki (Michigan Rock School and RockSchoolProprietor.com) and Mandy York (Music Time of Milford) engage in a spirited debate on the necessity of teaching note reading in today's world. They explore their differing musical backgrounds and ponder whether reading music is essential for students or if playing by ear and leveraging modern technology replace the need for note reading.
In this episode:
- historical perspectives of reading music and the evolution of music education
- how icons like The Beatles and Pavarotti found success without reading music
- why reading rhythms is universal and may be more important than reading notes on the staff
Finally, they discuss the implications for music educators and students alike, striving to find a balance between maintaining the art of reading music and embracing new teaching techniques.
