Ok so my D is a rising junior. We are just beginning to make a college list of schools for MT. Recently a music director (church) who was listening to my D sing was very critical of her limited knowledge of reading music/sight singing/ m theory. He made out like my D has no future in theater if she is not proficient at it. I am curious to know how many of your children have a lot of m theory in high school and your opinions on this statement. My D gets done theory instruction in school but not a lot. She can read music a bit but is not adept. He made my D feel awful about it & I need some opinions from others!! TIA
