Ah yes then I think in time it will be used as a musical term like we use "texture" or "coloration" Reason I find these important is when I first started college, we had a teacher giving great importance to being able to speak music. We listened a song and she asked each person if he/she liked or disliked it. That was the easy part, next was why it was liked or disliked and we realized the answers didn't have much depth to them (as an answering musician) This really helped me later on, besides better communication one can standout in a crowd when needed for his/her career or needed momentarily attention. This is very interesting mate. I had something close to this at the University but not related with taste. We had to analyze music from Gregorian chant, to classical and contemporary. We analyzed texture, structures, arrangements, rhythm, harmony and every relevant aspect. This made me appreciate music that I wasn't used to hear in a very deep way. I also have seen the evolution on music related to rhythm, harmony, genres and arrangements. Very interesting stuff. -------------------- My lessons

Wow, you can study these things in college? To me, it seems amazing because no one I heard coming from a music college here had to deal with such important aspects in music studies. What exactly did you study mate? Well, I first studied on classical music theory+composition but quit that school on 2.nd year, later I transfered here; http://music.bilgi.edu.tr/ The year I entered its jazz department for musicians stopped accepting new students and there was only 1 program which had lots of selectable classes (similar to todays program). I focused composition and soundtech there but also took some fun stuff We had a teacher there which was into music philosophy and her lessons were very deep but cool she's one of the smartest person I've ever met, I remember once went to speak to her about a lesson and during that 20 minute argument I started to feel dizzy This is very interesting mate.

I agree they are very important, a musician can't succeed without creating a personal understanding what he plays in depth otherwise it won't sound original. To be honest today I forgot many of the things I learned but all those lessons heavily affected the way I think about music, I guess that was the point anyway |
