MUSIC
We all love watching little children merrily dance with little or no inhibition, singing along to their favorite song in a voice that is clear and strong, though maybe a little out of tune. Music is an outlet for self-expression and creativity. But far beyond simply providing an opportunity to sing and dance, research has shown that a strong musical education provides so much more. Music, for example, develops self-discipline. A child who allots time for practicing music each day is known to develop similar habits in conjunction with other subjects. Organizational skills increase and the child learns what it takes to be good at something. Ensemble experience also builds teamwork. Band members learn the importance of being a reliable member of a group, being a team player and not necessarily always ‘the star.’ Scientists have also discovered that learning to read music or play a musical instrument develops higher thinking skills. A child who learns music excels at problem-solving, evaluation, and analysis. Music reading uses the same portion of the brain that is used in mathematical thinking.
We believe it is essential that music be taught as part of the curriculum and not just in separate areas such as orchestra and tuitions. This is one way we assure opportunities for all students to fully develop their capacities. Students from Kindergarten through Secondary School learn Curriculum such as :
-
Akhil Bharatiya Gandharv Mahavidyalay, Miraj.
-
Bharat Gayan Samaj, Pune.
-
Indian, Western and instruments under the expert guidance of skilled music instructors.
