I LOVE this video on how playing an instrument effects the brain. When your child learns to play an instrument, your child will become a better listener, become more disciplined, learn to persevere when things are challenging and most importantly, have FUN!
Our Bozeman community is blessed with one of the best music programs I have been a part of. To be able to learn how to play a string instrument, as part of the school day, is very special. Most communities offer choir and band, but string instruction is frequently not offered.
