Ah, yes. I've always thought this was true.
hey will, don't generalize, i had some really interesting profs
over the years... well, at least one.
Me too. The extraordinary composer, Harold Shapero, who gave me a
"B" for bad in harmony and then said, "You're enough of a musician
that you'll do this all over for yourself by the time you're 30." At
age 29, I went to Hall Overton, who showed me how to do just that
(among other important things), and whatever I learned about writing
music from teachers, I learned mostly from those two. How did Harold
know I'd actually want to learn harmony one day - that's the
mystery! Harold is still alive and writing beautiful music - retired
from Brandies University.
