Volume II, Issue 1, Spring 1995 Table of Contents The Earliest Music Lessons The Musician's Brain Matters of Opinion How About Educational Trials for Music? ... Recent Publication of Special Interest The Earliest Music Lessons Music lessons come in many forms. There are formal lesson, which are highly structured and follow a carefully worked out series of increasing complexities. There are also informal lessons. Most often these consist simply of watching and listening to someone perform. Both provide opportunities to learn about music and both promote and encourage the incorporation of a musical sense into cognition and emotion. Today we consider informal music lessons, in particular the earliest lessons in music, those of the human infant. In the inaugural issue of Music Research Notes , we highlighted the surprising musical capacities of infants ("The Musical Infant", MRN, 1994, 1, #1 ). Also noted were some parallels between music and language competencies and the fact that infant language behaviors are strongly reinforced and encouraged by parents and caregivers, in contrast to musical behaviors, which are not. Here, we expand on this theme, focusing on a generally ignored but hardly insignificant fact. Infants receive music "lessons" beginning immediately after birth, from parents and others. These lessons are in the form not only of music but also of language . Although music and language are normally viewed as quite separate, they actually have fundamental commonalties, particularly as practiced to infants.

Music is Powerful It affects our emotions and can even alter our mood and behavior. Consider Mozart's famous "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik-Allegro." This piece is inspiring and motivating. A great selection to start your day, clean your house or enhance your appreciation for classical music. Then there is Edvard Grieg's "Morning Mood." When I listen to this famous piece, I can picture in my mind the first sounds of morning, the sun rising, the ocean waves lapping on the beach while seagulls explore the sky. A perfect beginning to a glorious day and a moving melody line for a movie soundtrack. Yes, music is powerful. Much study and investigation has been given to the benefits of music from a cognitive standpoint. Does music improve memory, enhance creativity and boost IQ? While many still debate the positive correlation between music and learning, the investigative studies are fascinating. Infant Memory And The Effects Of Music "Thus, the findings show that infants can use music as a means to remember, so that music defines or gives meaning to a learning situation, at least as early as three months"

Parents, Young Children and Music Practice by Catherine Shefski If your house is anything like mine, getting your child to sit down to practice piano is no easy task. Playing the piano should be fun. I know many teachers will disagree and say that practicing requires diligence and discipline. With twenty years of piano study behind me, I do know about discipline and the dedication. However, when we are talking about young children, we must keep in mind that we are laying the groundwork for a lifetime of music enjoyment. We've all heard our children singing while they play, humming to themselves, or chanting nursery rhymes. They seem to be so naturally musical. As parents, we get excited and quickly enroll our children in piano lessons. Unfortunately for many of us, our child's enthusiasm begins to fizzle out and soon we are both dreading the daily practice session. This causes problems for the teacher during the lesson, frustration for the child, and eventually, the end of the piano lessons.
