I loved this text. I relate a lot to the feeling of the domestic educational system that is prevalent at RIC. Our FNED class doesn't fall into this category at all. However, a lot of my music classes, I've noticed, are very structured and basic. I'm learning the basic ideas and rules that don't allow me to bring in the art aspect of music. At the end of the day, music is art. The education I'm getting regarding music helps me understand how specific aspects work, but it doesn't allow my mind to be creative; I just follow directions. I wanna learn how to think outside of the box. I want to learn how I can be creative. I wanna learn what was so amazing and different about these legendary composers we study today. I want to learn how to activate the creative parts of my mind to help me make music something of my own. I wanna learn how to create art, not the simplistic stuff you always see. As a future teacher, I'd love to inspire my students to find their identity with music. I want my future students to love what they do and to be creative. I want them to think outside of the norm.
