in Finland we learned to play the recorder in elementary school music classes. What happens in music class in your country?
Yeah when you're in ~4th grade here you do general music classes with your whole grade doing things like recorder practice, or choir, or percussion type stuff. Things the entire class can take part in doing the same thing, and doesn't really require reading music. You're basically just copying what the teacher tells you.Then in 5th grade kids are given the opportunity to take band classes as an elective, where each kid picks an instrument to learn. From then on, only the kids who chose to be in band class actually participate. Usually band practice happens for those kids during some other period. For example, the other kids did a silent reading period while I was practicing.Later on in high school and college, band is a class you take during a period of the day just like any other. In the US students select their courses in high-school and college because everyone is on different educational paths at that point.

>>223985107>What happens in music class in your country?picrel and how a sonata is structured
Music class?
>>223985107yes we also did that. I guess it's because the recorder is the cheapest instrument. There were glockenspiels too in year 7, but I don't think we played with them much or at all.
>>223985107We had a selection of like 7 instruments to choose from. I picked Mandolin. But classes were too big to properly learn so it sounded awful.

>>223985107we learned on the same damned flute. then we got a music teacher who was an actual musician, he didnt ditch the flute but made us try so much more. my classmate who was in a wheelchair and a master on accordion and bass guitar under his guidance thought me to play his bass tunes while he mastered the accordion. one guy did drumming in the school marching band, he became the band drummer, we had some guys who knew guitar their role where obvious, some could sing, some did brass and flutes, some where good at the keyboard (i was initially keyboard skilled but nah lets make me a bass player)... thats how a good music class is done.said teacher is a family friend and does the front vocal and if needed the music as well at every church happening in my family for free. buried two grandparents and married two cousins to his voice, once he did the church organ as well. his son is also an internationally well known metal artist and i have seen a few concerts of him right next to my old music teacher.
