It's time for Music - ALWAYS!

So it's Winter Holidays again - at least downunder! All our students are tucked safely away at home, practising their instruments to their heart's content - or not! Ah! Practise! Whatever it is, it isn't a 4 letter word. So it can't be all that bad after all.

I recently posted an article on just that very topic on our Facebook page. http://www.facebook.com/FortemusicEastwood Click on this link to get you there and you'll find it to read. While you're there, if you haven't told the world you Like us yet, now's the time to rectify that.

As it is indeed winter, I am reminded that this cool weather is a lot like what we are experiencing in terms of global economy. So I want to put in a word here about Music lessons. They're not JUST about Music - they're teaching so much more.

From a purely academic perspective

 * Music is a Science 

* Music is Mathematical 

* Music is a Language - in fact it is probably the only true globally shared language
* Music is Physical Education              
* Music is an Art.

 However,  it is so much more.
Plato put it so well “Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.”

Without Music life would be so much less - well, everything. So don't give up. The benefits of being a real active learner, not just be a passive participate, are too good to pass up - for now and for yours and your children's future.
