They accenT responsibiliTies oT leadership and provide a sTa- bilizing inTluence on The younger and less experienced members oT our musical organizaTions. Through Their eTTorTs and example They help To creaTe an aTmo- sphere conclusive To a high cali- bre oT musical perTormance. The process oT living and The process oT adjusTing To The many pressures oT modern civilizaTion are boTh conTinuous. Learning To live wiTh people, To work and play wiTh Them, is a TundamenTal re- quiremenT Tor a happy and suc- cessTul adjusTmenT To The social and economic pressures oT liTe. Learning can be carried ouT in such a way ThaT The process iTselT is pleasanT, buT wheTher pleasanT or unpleasanT. The acquired habiTs and aTTiTudes become a Tunda- menTal parT oT The personaliTy oT The learner. Musical acTiviTies do provide channels Through which pleasanT learning oT The essenTials oT social relaTionships can Take place. The relaTionships oT music To liTe cannoT be measured in Terms oT pracTicaliTy alone: iTs values are also subiecTive and play a subTle parT in inTluencing behavior.
