Your Brain and Music

Maybe. But is that the point? Are music lessons taken and given for instrumental reasons only?

Playing music has its own rewards. 

On the other hand.
​
Learning to play an instrument over a number of years instills though experience and a number of instrumental values that benefit children as they progress towards adulthood.  

1. Demonstrates to themselves and the world their ability to delay gratification, a key value in living a good life. 
2. Instills an appreciation of cause and effect. Playing the piano is one of the few authentic experiences left. No mediation, no shortcuts, no hacks. What you hear is a direct consequence to the effort put forward. This speaks for itself. 
3. Preservation of cultural values and appreciation of artistic excellence. 

If you would like this experience for yourself or your children drop me line.
