Reasons why music making should be part of every after school program?
|
1. Involvement with music making has a proven, lasting, positive impact on young people’s self-esteem, social abilities, intellectual development and academic performance. This promotes their full potential as productive, responsible and caring individuals.
2. Honing musical abilities, deepening the capacity to listen and respond to music, and unleashing the resulting self-confidence can play a pivotal role in character development during childhood and adolescence.
3. Most young people are passionate about music. When you bring music to your organization, you tap into a depth of interest—and in many cases, natural talent—that already exists. Music provides an effective way for young people to discover what music making can mean in their lives. It will give them opportunities to explore their creativity, learn and grow.
