I studied music as a child, I was obliged and endured until I finished High School ... but I have never considered it a waste of time, I think on the contrary that thanks to my mother insisted I found a form of evasion that has accompanied me for years.
In the Institute it was the geek that took advantage of the free tickets that were distributed among students to see the concerts of classical music (with 15 years I was already alone), maybe if I had not been studying music, I would have missed it and it would have been a shame .
But my brother was also forced and he was "steers" of the music class. With the passage of time that has made me realize that no matter how important music training is for me, I could not force my children. However, the little girl has taken the step by herself, and she is also very proud to have chosen the violin as an instrument, I am too, of course.
The violin with its case, the musical language book, the instrument introduction, the scores, we will have to make room in the room. And now we will periodically dedicate some Sunday afternoon to go to orchestra concerts, so she wants it, and look, I'm glad to hear you play Shubert or Tchaikovsky again.
In addition, they say that music is mathematics for the soul, as mathematics is music for the mind
What I wanted to tell you today is to study music yes it has benefits for children (beyond artistic creation), and they are also demonstrated. Although of course, if I like that my daughter has been introduced in this branch of art that is conceptually difficult to explain, it is not because it will help her in the studies, but because she does it for pleasure, and especially because the decision will nourish that restless mind that accompanies your sensitive soul.
Eduard Ruano is a tuba teacher at a professional Conservatory, in A Dozen, he explains a handful of good reasons for children to study music.
Among other things improves language proficiency, develops logical thinking and artistic sensibility, improves the ability to listen and reflect, helps students to be more responsible and careful, and influences self-esteem.
It turns out that studying music during childhood helps the formation of new connections in children's brains, and this improves cognitive performance in other areas.
The theme deserves to be expanded (and I hope it does not stay in the inkwell), here we had already anticipated that early music training improves interaction with sounds when children become adults. But we also have to say that the improvement in attention and concentration are advantages that musical studies provide.
Finally, studying music favors cooperative work, when children grow up and attend instrumental ensemble classes
We will not deny that it is a sacrifice for children, who are already quite busy with their daily homework, but precisely the improvement of organizational capacity, helps them overcome difficulties.
In general there are more advantages than disadvantages, even for parents ... because the movements to take them and bring them, remind them to practice a little, etc., are compensated by perceiving their progress, right?
