MUSIC and LEARNING : | Go to Top

What is so magical about music ? Why is it so powerful ?
Responding to music comes naturally to young children.
Babies mimic our speech patterns with babbles and snuggle into our bodies when we sing to them.
Toddlers enjoy music as a wonderful outlet for movement, communication, creativity and socialisation.

MUSIC & LEARNING, a duet where music provides :
* Repetition that reinforces learning
* A rhythmic beat that helps coordination
* Patterns that help in anticipating what comes next
* Melodies that capture our attention and hearts in enjoyment
* Words that are the building blocks of language and literacy

MUSIC SUPPORTS DEVELOPING SKILLS, it can :
* Build relationships, communicate feelings and provide comfort
* Help toddlers share, make friends and feel comfortable in a group
* Foster language development through stories, rhyming and rythm
* Develop individuality in discovering your own sounds & styles of music
* Launch creativity by filling in missing words and making up songs
* Develop muscles by finger plays, dancing and playing instruments
* Build coordination by following a beat and using minds, voices and bodies together

MUSIC IS :
* Universal, a reflection of the world around us and the people making it
* All around you, rain falling, birds chirping, traffic hum, even conversation
* You ! Create your own with your voice, hand clapping, feet stomping
* Discovery, there is no right or wrong way
* Fun and meaningful for everybody
* Therapeutic as a sing-a-long will quickly demonstrate or sooth disabled or other frustrations
* Relaxing and Essential. Enjoy !

AN ENTERTAINMENT GROUP, 8 ingredients for the 'perfect package', from an external authority.
1. Timing
2. Luck (unfortunately, you can't do much about these first two...)
3. The Song. Deemed the most important element. It should inspire the listener to do something (dance, cry, feel romantic, etc)
4. Vocal performance - the human ear connects with the voice first
5. Instrumental performance - thought of as the most over-rated, unless it's a distinctive part of your sound
6. Visual image - every act needs a strong identity
7. Your ‘Story' - you need a narrative, which gives you a point of difference
8. Attitude / work ethic - people who are the best are always trying to be better

Test Drive The Arts offers people with little or no experience of live chamber music the chance to “test drive” a concert at no cost.
