How is music like a language?
It is like learning a language. We learn to speak it and are fluent in it and enjoy it, before we learn the basis. We learn it perfectly before we learn the fundamentals. Music is something we should become fluent in before we start thinking so incredibly technically.
What do you think about Wooten's idea that music...
I like this idea. So many kids start playing instruments and end up hating it or wanting to quit. With language a child eventually has a sincere desire to be able to communicate and say what they want or express how they feel. If one uses this with music, the desire for playing will be much more about communication instead of the technique of it. I think it would work well, because it gives the person more of a want and a love for the instrument and almost an absolute need to learn it to be able to communicate rather than just learning it for the sake of knowing and instrument.
What could he mean by saying, "there are no wrong notes?"
I think he is talking about how people personally play music is their own voice. With language again, there are so many ways to pronounce things and none of them are wrong, it just matters how you learned. There are no wring notes because everything that is played is you getting better and learning what your own sound is.
