Musicality Beyond Music

Does your understanding of music extend beyond music? Do you appreciate, and encourage your students to appreciate, musical behavior in nonmusical situations?

I love farce, particularly well-performed farce. The dialogue becomes music. The same is true of Aaron Sorkin’s beautiful dialogue.

Today, I’ve been enjoying this epically brilliant duet – two very different instruments in perfect counterpoint.

We must seek, and appreciate, music wherever it appears – whether it can be notated or not.
