If you have ever been in a position that I am in right now, you’d probably wish that technology could help you learn better, be a better musician, do gigs you dream of but would never get to, keep practice logs to inspire, organize your music and notes all in digital form, accessible from anywhere, anytime on iPhone, desktop, car radio, you name it.
How can Technology help music students? Not artists, not bands, but music students! How interesting and silly that I pose this question, correct? What technology did Bach have, how many types of mp3 players and sophisticated tools did Purandaradasa use to create the lessons plans, none. You are right. In a slightly less connected world of 1800s or 1900s, I’d argue that to keep focus on what is relevant to me was a little more easier than today. With more technology driven “distractions” my belief is that we need better technology driven focus tools as well.
What do you think?
