Music is an Essential Part of Your Child's Education

• The study of music affects student's abilities in attention, processing and sequencing.

• The study of music has a positive affect on the brain's processing of language. The younger the student, the better.

• Music instruction physically changes the brain.  

  • Musicians have an increased corpus callosum (the part of the brain that communicates between left and right brain), and increased grey matter (involved in processing).  

  • Changes in brain structure can happen with as little as 15 months of music instruction in early childhood.

• The study of music teaches grit.

• Being in a performing groups teaches students to  be an essential part of the group. No one "sits on the bench"!
