Why support music education in the schools? Because children who play music do better in school and in life. Because music education helps young people feel inspired and motivated. Because according to a Columbia University study, students in the arts are found to be more cooperative with teachers and peers, more self-confident and better able to express their ideas. (Burton, J., Horowitz, R, Abeles, H. Champions of Change, Arts Education Partnership, 1999).
