As a public school instrumental music teacher for 27 years, I have been happy if my elementary school students learned the basics. I agree with David, that a knowledge of clefs would be valuable information for students to have, but the sad reality is that there is little time in the day for such specialized music education. IMHO, teaching clefs in this day and age is the responsibility of private teachers... _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
