Every time I hear a band, I don't just hear music, I hear memories. Those marches, show tunes and adaptations of classical themes take me back to school stages and gymnasiums where the lights would be dimmed, the baton would be raised, and a rag-tag group of high school adolescents would be magically transformed into entertainers. entertainers. I wonder how many of us could coax a scale from the old instruments instruments we used to play. I doubt if I could. Neither does the pretty clarinet player that I met in the band and married almost six years ago. I am not aware that any members of my high school band went on to become household household names on the concert concert stage. But that was not the point. Music was simply an important part of growing up. And, for my money, it teaches some of the intangible intangible skills that you won't find amidst the straightforward understanding understanding of facts and dates and formulas in other secondary school classrooms. I remember moving to a new school and deciding deciding to join a music class one year behind the rest of the students. That euphonium (also known as a baritone horn) taught me all about the persistence and the delight of meeting meeting what seemed, at first, to be an impossible impossible challenge. We learned the value of working together as a group. A band, after all, is a mixture of various various personalities and differing levels of musical musical skills. Learning hcTw to fit all of these people into one group for the purpose of playing playing a single arrangement arrangement or an entire concert concert was a lesson in getting getting along in the world. Then, there was the enjoyment of fund-raising fund-raising for special exchange exchange trips and other projects. There was the preparation for concerts, concerts, and a hundred and one other tasks that became part of belonging belonging to that particular organization. If learning, to play and appreciate music were the only objective of that band, it would have still been worthwhile. worthwhile. But the non-musical non-musical things we learned through our concerts, practises, trips, and fund-raising drives were, I believe, most important of all.
