The Benefits of Music
Increased self esteem, increased focus and concentration, healthy and
creative avenues of personal expression, improved self discipline and
development and enrichment of aesthetic sense.
I would teach children music, physics, and philosophy; but most
importantly music, for in the patterns of music and all the arts
are the keys of learning.
Plato
Music education opens doors that help children pass from school into the
world around them - a world of work, culture, intellectual activity, and
human involvement. The future of our nation depends on providing our
children with a complete education that includes music. Gerald Ford, former President of the United States

schools face when attempting to incorporate a new
syllabus or activity into their community.
Many Schools
benefit from such a program, as music learning not only
raises the profile and esteem of the participating school,
but also opens the door of opportunity for every child to
have music within his or her reach. Through experiences
in music, students gain knowledge, experiences and skill
that can make for a more fulfilling life. Furthermore,
music educators have identified music's ability to improve
motor co-ordination, reading skills and mental and physical
abilities. Learning a musical instrument is a viable
strategy for today's classroom as it creates an exciting
environment full of emotion and rich language. It
imparts valuable concepts to students which they can
connect and apply to existing knowledge, as well as
building self-esteem and creating a sense of inclusion
and collaboration. The evidence is clear that we can
achieve more success in learning through the strategic
use of music!
