A pupil, who has no problem with musical literacy, would like more detailed fingering on an ensemble part – with nothing left uncertain.
Which of the following two appraoches (if either) would you say is a better example of literacy on the part of either the pupil or the teacher?
Option A:
Include comprehensive fingering on the written part.
Option B:
Upload a supplementary video in which pupil can see the teacher play the part against a recording of the ensemble piece.
