Excerpt from The Education of the Music Teacher
The education of the music teacher, like that of any other worker in art, literature, or science, is never completed. No education may be bounded by time, or limited to a period of study. It is a process that continues to move forward through daily experience. This experience is the precious metal that must be worked over by the intellectual power and coined into consciousness. It may not remain merely intellectual, but it must precipitate its worth into the subjectivity as impulse to all further action.
Music teaching as community service in the highest sense, is frequently spoken of in the chapters of this book for the evident reason that, in such application, it exerts its best and most logical influence. It results in transforming a life of objectless, toilsome teaching into a positively directed activity of more or less extensive influence. The humblest teacher may direct his work upon a wider territory through his pupils than rests with them alone.
