A Historical Perspective:
An 11th century monk and music teacher: "His endeavours to improve these
conditions by innovations in the current methods of teaching are fully
described in his writings; these made him unpopular with his brethren in
the order and led to his removals to the monastery of Pomposa near Ferrara,
Italy."
Sight: The Guidonian Hand
Hand signals which were 'short-cuts' to musical
tones in the scale
Sound: The 'Syllables"
The 'do, re, me' system
Reading: The Music Staff Notation System
Defined music literacy until the present day
