“Everyday listening skills are
stronger in musically-trained
children than in those
without
music training. Significantly,
listening skills are closely
tied to the ability to:
perceive
speech in a noisy background,
pay attention, and keep
sounds in memory.”

Benefits of Music Education
Studies show that music can trigger the brain to release
chemicals that distract the body from pain.
Musical training is thought to improve nervous system
function by focusing attention on meaningful acoustic
cues, and these improvements in auditory processing
cascade to language and cognitive skills.
Children who receive musical instruction have more robust brainstem responses to sound as adults than peers
who never participated in music lessons. These results
suggest that neural changes accompanying musical
training during childhood are retained in adulthood.
Cognitive and neural benefits of musical experience continue throughout the lifespan, from childhood through
senior adulthood, and counteract some of the negative
effects of aging, such as memory and hearing difficulties
in older adults.
Music and math are highly intertwined. Music also helps students develop coordination and motor skills as well as self-discipline and self-esteem. Students that participate in music programs consistently score higher in English and mathematics than their peers.
