Knowing how to read music is probably a good thing for a lot of people. OTOH, a lot of people who've composed some very pleasant tunes couldn't read, as we all know. What true music is is very difficult to define in this era. With so much automation and pattern development computer stuff out there the lines which define the term "composition" become more and more blurry. --Hey, where's Linda Dachtyl's input on this thread? Don't you TEACH music, Linda? :`) My 2\ufffd -- in general, the best music has come from trained people who read music and understand theory but are/were not limited by boundaries.
