so how does a musician become "classically trained"? does this mean some
minimum of standard for specific musical skills (instrument playing
capabilities, sight reading, arranging, playing specific pieces to a
standard, etc)

i took violin lessons as a child using the Suzuki methods ... is that
considered classical training?
