Teacher Workshop 8

The homework completed as we grew to become musicians is responsible for our musical accomplishments. Because it is the source of our strengths many teachers routinely instruct in the way they were taught.

        But the same homework is also to be held accountable for our weaknesses. These shortcomings should not be passed on to our students.

        This session considers the homework strategies that contributed to shaping and mis-shaping us as musicians. Challenging preconceptions, it offers simple yet extraordinary revelations that set new light on established practices, and presents fresh perspectives for teachers to consider .
