So I have a private student who attends a NYC middle school . We were
talking about scales and I said when the band director tells band to
play a Bb scale what does she tell you to play? Student "whatever
scale we want" oh I said she replied "so I play a C scale but it
sounds weird".
She appears several weeks later and I ask "where is you manuscript
book so I can write you lessons and reminders down"? Student "oh my
band director took it to copy it she said I sounded better"

Lets hear it for music education! I found this sentence about horn
playing on Yahoo answers. This girl just wasted a year of band. I
guess maybe the band director had too many kids in the class to
notice one of them was playing "oddly".
"I played it for a year! but at the end of the year i found out that
it was strung backwards, and i was like OH THATS WHY IT SOUNDED
WIERD!!!!!!!!I"
