QUESTIONS ANp ANSwEgS.
q. Why !, 1t We Ind 80 many student, un
able to play n piece Of music al FIRST sight
deerntly1
q Thu, !, no, very hard question to
answer. In the hrs, place they do not think
they mus, crawl before they can leap, 81 in
other words. thar it Is necessary ioi everyday
practice to consist ol scales and exercises.
There must be some hard work done while the
foundation is being laid, and this is what stu
dents will no, do, despite the earnest appeals
Of their teachers, Parents ate good deal To
blame in the matter, and !, should bc their
duty to know what lesson the teacher has
gwen, and also 10 see that the pupil practices
the lesson regularly every day, the stated time
given by the teacher. Instances can be quo,cd
where pupils begin To practice half an hour he
fore the teacher arrives, the only time they
give To the lesson. That Is certainly not
the road to success, and Is not fair to ieaehef
The legitimate groundwork ior learning To
play on the piano, is based upon the inceSsant
practice Of scales and finger exercises, inter
Spersed with good models from the best com
posers. The education OF the musical brain
and OF the fingers can only he attained by dill
gent, orderl, toll. Pupils who cannot make
up their minds To the above facts, should at
once leave the an OF music alone, as i, is dis
Graeing it, and Is only waste Of money,
