Description
Does music enhance children's intelligence? At what age is it appropriate for a child to start music lessons? Where is the best place to buy an instrument? What should parents anticipate from their child's instructors and lessons? How can parents encourage their children to practice? "Raising Musical Kids" addresses these inquiries and more, providing guidance for parents on creating a listening library, aligning a child's personality with an instrument, and discovering local musical resources. Recognizing that children often receive significant music education through school, author and educator Robert Cutietta examines the advantages of elementary and secondary music programs, offering insights on how parents can collaborate with schools to optimize music education. Throughout the book, Cutietta highlights the intrinsic joy of engaging in music. The revised second edition of "Raising Musical Kids" promises to be a valuable resource for parents seeking to nurture their child's musical talents.
