Another Music Together Teacher Shares

Music supports all kinds of learning, -we use our voices, listening skills, motor skills, our emotions, spatial reasoning, language skills. It expands thought into an expression from the heart. Most of all, it lifts us up out of ourselves and allows us to go to a place beyond words and gives us a sense of the beauty and joy of life. I believe it helps to make us happier, more compassionate, more satisfied and expressive human beings and enriches our life experience.

Music isn't something where we go from point "a" to point "b" and then we are finished. Musical development is something that continues all of our lives. I'm still developing musically as are all the adults in our classes, as are all of the children.
