Karen Steffensen's insight:

"...music needs to be a cornerstone of education. Music is an art and a science, and it's one of the best ways kids can learn  creativity and those mythical critical thinking skills."

Drew O'Connors's curator insight, March 25, 5:02 PM

"Music is an art and a science, and it's one of the best ways kids can learn  creativity and those mythical critical thinking skills. The focus of the curriculum isn’t forcing everyone to learn about Bach or Mozart. It’s about learning how to think, rather than what to think."

Rachel Roche's curator insight, May 7, 7:31 AM

Why do you think Music is an important subject to learn?  Other than learning how to read notes of a sheet, what else can you learn from studying Music?
