Note by note. That's how musical scores are written and that is how they are learned. Over the last two days, our fearless musical director Matthew Meckes has taught a week's worth of dense, ensemble-heavy music in less than 11 hours. The score for Passing Through, as I mentioned in an earlier post, is heavily influenced by folk music, but it also has the layering of any modern pop/musical theatre score. There are a lot of moving parts.
