In the early 1990s, some people thought that if you played recordings of music by the classical composer Mozart to babies, their brain power would increase. Studies since then have shown that this so called ’Mozart effect’ does not exist. However, there is plenty of evidence that active and regular involvement in music can be very good for children.

| IS MUSIC ACTUALLY GOOD FOR YOU. |
In one experiment carried out in London, psychologists studied the effect that singing along to songs by the pop band Blur had on a group of children, and there have been similar studies with different types of music. In each case, the researchers reached the conclusion that the activity makes children happier. What’s more, as a result, they perform difficult tasks better. Most of us, of course, know from personal experience that music can have this impact. We also know that music-making often happens in groups of various kinds and we recognise music as something that is shared with others. Researchers have found that this aspect of music-making can help pre-teens develop valuable social skills.
Psychologists have also looked at more specific ìssues.They have discovered, for example, that babies and infants who are encouraged to clap and sing along to a variety of songs tend to learn to speak faster than babies who don’t have this experience. Other studies have shown that children who receive music education of some kind at home with parents, ỉn nursery or at school are often particularly good at learning other languages. Other researchers have observed that when children learn about musical rhythms, patterns and timing, their ability to deal with numbers improves. In other words, there is often a connection between having some music training and being good at maths.
It’s not very surprising that music should have an impact. 'Physical exercise and training over time changes a person's body and makes them better at doing things like sport} says psychologist Dr Evelina Hutz.’lt’s similar with hearing and learning about music, though probably more in terms of the brain.’
Musical education is not only intellectual, however. It can also be physical. Research indicates that children who learn to dance and play musical instruments tend to develop good physical coordination.Those who are trained to dance, for example, are more likely than others to be able to move in a smooth and efficient way.
It has also been found that musical training improves children’s memory and their ability to concentrate. These qualities are clearly very valuable. ’The more you think about it,’ says Dr Hutz, 'the more obvious it is that music should be a central part of education. One country where music is given priority in schools is Finland and, interestingly, on international tests, Finnish children regularly achieve higher scores in various subjects than most other countries in the world.
One quality that can contribute hugely to an individual’s success in almost any field is self confidence, and it seems clear that children who have some form of musical education have greater self-confidence.’Research studies provide plenty of good evidence of this,’ Dr Hutz says.
Music education is often treated as an optional, extra subject, offered only if children have time and special talent.The evidence, however, suggests that it should be provided regularly to all children.
