05.01.2022 Did you know that there are benefits of children learning a musical instrument? Here are just 5 Benefits of Children Learning a Musical Instrument: 1. Teaches Patience. Playing an instrument means having to persevere through hours, days and possibly years of practice. Kids must have patience while learning to set goals. 2. Creates Responsibility. Most instruments take maintenance to keep them looking and sounding like new, giving kids something to be responsible for.... 3. Boosts Self-Esteem. Learning an instrument provides kids with an outlet to practice, listen to feedback, make adjustments and see positive changes. As they improve, they will build confidence and boost self-esteem. 4. Improves Reading Skills. To play an instrument, kids will improve their comprehension by learning to play sheet music, which requires identifying a note on the page and associating it with the pitch on their instrument. As their skills develop, they will start to read and play more fluidly. For a child playing the trumpet, which only has three pistons to control air flow and create notes, they will have to read music while also using hand combinations to create specific notes. 5. Exposes New Cultures. Music is a reflection of history. When you expose children to music, you teach them about jazz, blues, baroque and even zydeco cultures. Through these cultures, kids can develop a greater appreciation for their instruments. If you are interested in having your child join the Junior Burdekin Brass Band, simply send through a message today. We are always welcoming new junior players.
