A Message for Parents
Music Makes the Difference
A music education reaches far beyond mastering the technique required to perform on an instrument or sing.
Music is a way of learning. When a child studies music, significant elements of his or her education find focus and expression:
- developing the ability to understand and use symbols in new contexts.
- discovering the power, precision and control of math in unexpected ways.
- finding and directing personal creativity.
- exercising the diverse skills of problem-solving.
- experiencing the joy of self expression
- growing into the liberation acquired through self-discipline.
- participating in the deeply human satisfaction of shared work and the gratification of challenges met.
Music education enhances:
Problem solving
Teamwork
Goal setting
Self-expression
Co-ordination
Memory skills
Self-confidence and esteem
Concentration
Poise
Time management
Understanding other cultures
Communications
Technological awareness
Quality of life
and much, much, more!
