I have come to understand that the reason for discipline to go along with choral music is because choristers should not speak over their voices; they should keep to themselves and give other people a chance to talk and respond as well.
It is in this stage that people are taught to respect one another as music as well is about respecting the music of the person you are about to render, and I think to myself if everyone in the world was a choral music chorister or singer; then we would have a peaceful world where everyone thought of the next person before they say something and much respect was paid to everyone irrespective of age and gender.
I agree with you on some of the points you have highlighted.
ReplyDeletePeople would also trust their talents and capabilities. They would not allow themselves to feel inferior compared to others. They would not only understand the concept of Respect, but Ubuntu, Unity and Team work.
I believe that for any kind of art of this nature, there is an element of discipline. I agree with you on this topic.
