Some quotes from gary bayley that show his perspective on workshops  

"the brain learns best when involved not just in experiencing but in exploring and experimenting' from 'music learning: neurobiological foundations and educational implications" by w.gruhn in 'research studies in music education'

 

there should be a lack of distinction between 'practice' and 'performance', the learning is taking place 'on the job'. a loosely graded set of opportunities and challenges are set out that allow skills to develop" from 'exploring the musical mind' by john sloboda
