INDIRECT AND DIRECT GAINING KNOWLEDGE IN MUSIC |

Limitations of Conventional Musical Education |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Conventional musical education so far confined itself to teach the superficial tone patterns of music. Hence, it was barred from further fathoming the musical meaning which discloses itself only deep within the consciousness of the music lover the budding musician. |
Musical Education without Basis |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
This lack of inner-human dynamics results in the limited value of conventional music-education: its inability to bring about the natural and perfect process of creating music within each music student. |

“No composition has a long life-span if it does not show inspira-tion as well as professional com-petence.” Johannes Brahms |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
By its very essence, however, classical music represents the central core of musical creativity: by means of the musical process of gaining knowledge, the musical logic takes the student systematically to the origin of the inner-human creative process and purposely stimulates the creative human forces within consciousness to vibrate. |
Reality-Related Basis of a Modern Musical Education |

The process of gaining knowledge in music is of threefold benefit: firstly, it is the development of general cognition of truth; secondly, an educational system to systematically refine our means of gaining knowledge; and thirdly, a practical exercise to handle them skilfully. |
