 MUSIC EDUCATION

The Brain-Building Subject

Musical activities provide children with important experiences that can help them develop physical coordination, timing, memory, visual, aural and language skills. When they work to increase their command of music and exercise musical skills in the company of others, they gain important experience with self-paced learning, mental concentration and a heightened personal and social awareness. Frank R. Wilson. M.D.:.Associate Clinical Professor of Neurology-University of California School of Medicine in San Francisco: AMC 1998 Publication: Music and our Child".

Music education relates to basic intelligence by establishing more neural pathways in the brain for higher functioning levels.

Visual and sensory-motor cortex neurons are established through early learning experiences with music.

Through music. layers of brain cells become specialized and send information to other layers of brain cells optimizing the brain's bilateralism. - Bharucha (Dartmouth)

There is increased intelligence in artistic children because music more fully involves the brain functions in both hemispheres than any other activity. -Frank Wilson (neurologist)

The Mozart effect: students who listened to Mozart sonata beforehand scored 8 to 9 points higher on spatial reasoning I.Q. tests than those who listened to relaxation tapes or sat in silence. -From Nature Copyright 1993. Drrs. Rauscher and Shaw, University of California, Irvine.

Music, being complex and structured, exercises certain neural firing patterns that benefit learning and memory. - Frances H. Rauscher (Irvine Neurobiology).

Learning music forces mental stretching useful in math and reading. - Martin Gardner
(The Music School, Pawtucket, RI):

Learning music is superior to computer training for enhancing abstract reasoning skills necessarv for learning math and science. -Frances H. Rauscher and Gordon Shaw (Irvine):

Students with coursework/experience in music performance scored 52 points higher on the verbal portion of the SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) and 36 points higher on the math portion of the SAT than students with no coursework or experience in the arts for a combined total of 88 points higher. -Profiles of SAT and Achievement Tests Takers, 1998, The College Board
