Weston, FL (Top40 Charts/ Dyce Kimura Official Website) A June 7, 2012 article in the Milwaukee Wisconsin Sentinel Journal, "Music education benefits many other life studies" reports that music lessons - whether at school or in the home - help students succeed in a wide array of life activities.
Music lessons serve to strengthen character, enhance emotions and build confidence. Perhaps most importantly, they help reduce stress and enhance self-esteem, according to the article.
The article cites 2012 research proving that studying music helps students improve their math, science and language learning—as well as response times. An earlier report by Forbes "showed 90 percent of a group of 4 to 6 year olds improved vocabulary skills, accuracy and reaction timing after studying the fundamentals of music for only 20 days." Sadly, even though this research underscores support for increased music education, an increasing number of school districts can afford music programs - with band, chorus, and orchestra being axed entirely.
Meanwhile, schools are being pressured to improve STEM ("science, technology, engineering and mathematics") programs, because the US is lagging behind other countries. However, one prominent researcher thinks the schools have it wrong: "Given that the impact of music lessons and appreciation on development and academic performance is well documented, why not equip your students to compete by involving them in an arts or music program? From preschool-aged through high school students, it has been established that musical training forms a solid foundation for learning in other areas," states Dr.
Milton Allen, an esteemed thought-leader in the arts.
