> 01 The Language of Music A painter hangs his or her
finished
picture
on
a
wall,
and
everyone
can
see
it.
A
composer
writes a work, but no one can hear it until it is performed.
Professional
singers
and
players
have
great
responsibilities, for the composer is utterly dependent on
them.
A
student
of
music
needs
as
long
and
as
arduous
a
training
to become a performer as a medical
student
needs
to
become
a
doctor.
Most
training
is
concerned
with
technique,
for
musicians
have
to
have
the
muscular
proficiency
of
an
athlete
or
a
ballet
dancer.
Singers
practice breathing every day, as
their
vocal
chords
would
be
inadequate
without
controlled muscular support. String players practice moving
the fingers of the left hand up and down, while drawing the
bow to and fro with the right arm -- two
entirely different movements.
Singers
and
instrumentalists
have
to
be
able
to
get
every
note perfectly in tune. Pianists are spared this particular
anxiety, for the notes are already there, waiting for them,
and it is the piano tuner
’
s
responsibility
to
tune
the
instrument
for
them.
But
they
have their own difficulties: the hammers that hit the strings
have
to
be
coaxed
not
to
sound
like
percussion,
and
each
overlapping tone has to sound
clear.
This
problem
of
getting
clear
texture
is
one
that
confronts
student
conductors:
they
have
to
learn
to
know
every
note of the music and how it should sound, and they have to
aim at controlling these sounds
with fanatical but selfless authority.
Technique
is
of
no
use
unless
it
is
combined
with
musical
knowledge and understanding. Great artists are those who are
so thoroughly at home in the language of music that they can
enjoy performing works
written in any century.



02 Schooling and Education
It
is
commonly
believed
in
the
United
States
that
school
is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless, it has
been said that today children
interrupt their education to go
to school. The distinction
between schooling and education implied by this remark
is important.
Education
is
much
more
open-ended
and
all-inclusive
than
schooling.
Education knows no bounds. It can take place anywhere,
whether in the shower or in the job, whether in a kitchen or
on a tractor. It includes both the formal learning that takes
place in schools and
the whole universe of informal learning. The agents of
education can range from a revered grandparent to the people
debating
politics
on
the
radio,
from
a
child
to
a
distinguished
scientist.
Whereas
schooling
has
a
certain
predictability,
education
quite
often
produces
surprises.
A
chance
conversation
with
a
stranger
may
lead
a
person
to
discover
how
little is known of other religions. People
are engaged in education from infancy on. Education,
then,
is
a
very
broad,
inclusive
term.
It
is
a
lifelong
process,
a
process
that
starts
long
before
the
start
of
school,
and
one
that should be an
integral part of one
’
s entire life.
Schooling,
on
the
other
hand,
is
a
specific,
formalized
process,
whose
general
pattern
varies
little
from
one
setting
to the next.
Throughout
a
country,
children
arrive
at
school
at
approximately the same time, take assigned seats, are taught
by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams,
and so on. The slices of
reality that are to be learned, whether they are the
alphabet or an understanding of the workings of government,
have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject
being taught. For example, high
school students know that they are not likely to find
out in their classes the truth about political problems in
their
communities
or
what
the
newest
filmmakers
are
experimenting with.
There
are
definite
conditions
surrounding
the
formalized process of schooling.



03 The Definition of
“
Price
”

Prices determine
how resources
are
to be used. They are
also the means by which products and services that are in
limited supply are rationed among buyers.
The price system of
the United States is a
complex
network
composed
of
the
prices
of
all
the
products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of
a
myriad
of
services,
including
labor,
professional,
transportation, and public- utility
services.
The interrelationships of all these prices make up the
“
system
”
of prices. The price of any particular product or
service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in
which everything seems
to depend more or less upon everything else.
If
one
were
to
ask
a
group
of
randomly
selected
individuals to define
“
price
”
, many would reply that price
is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a
product or service or,in other
words, that price is the money value of a product or
service
as
agreed
upon
in
a
market
transaction.
This
definition
is,
of
course,
valid
as
far
as
it
goes.
For
a
complete
understanding of a price in any
