Studies have shown that children who take music lessons also excel in other areas of study. Learning to play an instrument teaches a student more than how to make a sound from an instrument. Students also learn timing, patience and dedication. They learn how to work with other members of an orchestra or band. They learn to follow instruction and how to read music.
