I find that the use of metaphor is extremly important in the teaching process.
We have to use words to describe a musical phenomen and the use of "every day" language
will make it simple. Metaphors belong to our imagination - and since music starts were our imagination ends
(and this is also a metaphor...)
that it the closest we can get to music with words.
