One thing I miss about undergrad and grad studies in music is the weekly performance class. Wed take turns performing in front of our teachers and peers and then get feedback. When our role was to sit in the audience, the rule was to always point out something positive before you make a suggestion for improvement. I just tried to get some feedback in the real world about my own progress, and I realized that this process is not something that people are accustomed to or comfortable with. Some think its for the purpose of validation, but I dont think so. How else are you supposed to get an honest view of where you currently stand? For physical appearance, we can look in the mirror. For our health, we can take tests to gauge where we stand. But I wish it was more normal or acceptable to borrow a friends eyes to take an honest look at yourself.
