In
an effort to round out my haphazard musical education, I looked around for ear-training
teachers and found a comprehensive program that might work for me at College of
Marin. The four-semester series on ear
training was coupled with a separate course on music theory, another big hole
in my background, and I wrote to the instructor Trevor Bjorklund who
enthusiastically wrote back with a few suggestions on how to proceed. I signed up for his classes as well as a
beginning art course, and now Tuesdays and Thursdays I’m happily engaged at the
north end of the campus in Kentfield, where the modern Performing Arts building
lies adjacent to Fine Arts in a small grove of redwood trees. The other students are all about my daughter’s
age, and together, we are learning a lot.
I even have a student ID. Woo
hoo!
