VMTA & 3MBS Listening Activities
Being able to listen to music and understand how and why it makes us feel a certain way is a
very powerful tool for us as performers.
The more we listen to different types of music, the greater our knowledge and musical
interests become, and we develop more language for describing what we are hearing.
