I would say not to the same degree as someone who has been more developed. What you would be observing then is aptitude. What is done with that aptitude will determine whether they develop musicianship as defined by someone looking for a world-class hornist or a self-indulgent pop singer for whom The Star Spangled Banner, not to mention what you refer to as "The Standard Repertoire," is musically out of her league.

Hans has been talking about 'prerequisites', aural ability, rhythmic sense, performance technique, performance discipline etc. However, is it possible for musicianship to manifest itself in a relative beginner, a player who has not yet completed the course and who is not yet able to play what we may call, 'The Standard Repertoire' ?
