There's very little to be said for learning a piece note by note, reading the rhythmic markings, practising the fingerings and following your instructor's suggestions, if you haven't any idea how the music will eventually sound and feel.

The more you soak in, as far as vocabulary, the more access you have in order to express yourself accurately and vividly.
