"I would teach children music, physics, and philosophy; but most importantly music, for the patterns of music and all the arts are the keys to learning." - Plato
From learning your ABC's to memorizing your math facts, music has always been a powerful teaching tool. I know many adults today that when asked to recite the alphabet have difficulty doing so without singing! Developing an understanding of musical concepts such as rhythm, melody, harmony, timbre, history, culture, and much more can help students make connections outside of music class. Through my experience and continued study, I believe music education to be a vital ingredient in a child's education.
