A proper musical education is pretty effective in teaching a sense of (musical) aesthetics.
You need to start from first principles, though. In music this is done eg by learning to logically develop independent harmonically coherent voices (rather than thinking in “chords”).
I don't think so. Heard educated musicians perfectly play music that left me indifferent. Musicians that create music that touches me are often self taught.
Sure, but those self taught musicians already had a sense of aesthetics going in.
That's it, thank you. Technique can be learnt. Not sure about a sense of aesthetics.
