Is music as educational as maths, English and science?
Music engages most parts of the brain. It is an academic discipline, requiring language and mathematical skills. It is a physical discipline, requiring co-ordination and control. It is an artistic discipline, requiring creativity and imagination. It is a social discipline, requiring engagement with and understanding of others. It should be an important part of the curriculum of any school.
Beautiful instruments we use
Slentho
Kantele
Sound to symbol
Rather than learning about crotchets and quavers from day one, it is better to sing songs the children can readily relate to and from these discover the beats, divisions and multiples that are the basis of musical notation. Crotchets, minims, etc. are “discovered” within the familiar songs and then introduced to the children. The same goes for pitch notation too.
