Sue from Netanya,
Thanks for reminding me of those wonderful hours, in PS 25( a very
difficult city school), Brooklyn , when we were able to hear the music which
you describe. Thanks to that experience, and also to having spent my first
ten years in Uruguay and also having heard the classics in school, I have
learned to appreciate good music. I also attended Brooklyn Technical High
School. There we were offered music appreciation has well. The teacher had
taught us to appreciate classical music.
What happened here, in our Israel? I have taught in six different schools
and in NONE have I heard nothing but Rock and Pop; sometimes some true
Israel music.
WHERE IS THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION? DOES IT REALLY EDUCATE? I HAVE MY
DOUBTS.

They say there is nothing new under the sun. Many, many years ago when
I was a primary school student in New York City we had citywide music
appreciation tests. We had to recognize the music played, composer,
etc. Based on a pre-test, certain students were told to stay home so
that the school average would be higher..
What it did do for us is that we were taught words to the music e.g. In
the hall of the mountain king, mountain king - in the hall of the
mountain king from the Peer Gynt Suite by Grieg. And, This is the
symphony that Shubert wrote and never finished. So I who have a very
poor auditory memory can identify these particular pieces by name
whereas for just about everything else I know, I know it but can't for
the life of me identify it.
