I was thinking about band in high school and remembering all the music we played.The music was pretty easy so that everyone could just play it back(regurgitation)and we were not that good at all. The conductor never promoted any further understanding of the music or actual learning. I think that we never grew to play any more difficult music because of that. If the conductor was to maybe explain the music more in depth, the students may be able to have a higher understanding.

Excellent question, one I havent really ever put much thought into. Being able to produce the tone and proper rhythms is learning, becuase it may be a new pitch or rhythm, and it more than likely will occur again. Its all in what the director chooses to emphasize as to if they are learning or not. And by improving ensemble skills you are learning in a way as well.
