MY PEDAGOGICAL THOUGHTS IN BRIEF:
On Music
Music is a language - to be understood in sentences,
paragraphs and chapters. Students who are still
struggling with letters and words need the guidance
that will reveal to them the larger meaning of
musical language -- the organic coherence of the
musical composition.
On Music Theory:
Study music theory to make conscious the
unconscious; to gain certainty from intuitive
instinct; to acquire the idea of what music really
is; to understand musical structure and continuity.
Do not study music theory for the theory’s sake.
On Ear Training:
Train the ear to embrace the sentences, paragraphs
and chapters of the music -- that is the instinctive
understanding which marks a true musician. Say no to
notewise listening.
On Technique:
Technique is nothing but physiological function of
the body. Just as natural a thing as breathing and
walking. If you let your soul, your imagination,
your ears lead the way. Your fingers will come
along.
On Students:
Every student is a unique human being who has his
own way of learning and thinking. and different
student has different goal. Treating every student
individually, helping them to achieve their full
potential.
