The Value of Playing a Music Instrument

Active participation in any activity is far more beneficial than passive participation. In the case of music, performing alone and in an ensemble can have positive outcomes throughout the learning spectrum not demonstrated through listening to music. This is an excellent and easy to follow TED TALK video explaining the value of PLAYING a music instrument. Please take a few minutes to watch it and maybe even discuss it with your child.  All the best.
