ATTENTION PARENTS:

GUITARS

A toy is not a musical instrument. And a small child cannot hold a grownup-sized guitar. I recommend the Mini-Strat electric guitar and there are several half- and three-quarter-size acoustic guitars that do the job; they also provide a serviceable travel guitar when your child gets older.

A note on Internet Bargains:

You can get the same price you see on the Internet at ANY local store. My favorite stores are Buddy Rogers and Willis Music.

PIANOS

Pianos have a different feel than an electronic keyboard. But the Casio Previa series digital paino comes closest to a real piano AND it weighs several HUNDRED pounds less. In addition, your budding artist can practice while wearing headphones and all that you will hear is the gentle clicking of the keys. When you need to move it, you can easily do it alone - even stow it in a closet.

BENEFITS OF MUSIC STUDY

Dr. Frances Rauscher, University of Wisconsin at Oshkosh, read this excerpt in her 2001 National Association of School Music Dealers educational session regarding music education and the brain.

“Whether by voice or by instrument, musical performance requires physical control and precision of a high order. A child working at mathematics or a language can sit back, mentally, for minutes before facing difficulty. The same child, singing or playing a part, must both obey exactly and artistically the present behests of the music, and at the same time think ahead to prepare himself to deal equally faithfully with what is coming. In no other subject is a child called upon to make four or five decisions a second and act on them continuously for such stretches of time. This combination of constant, continuous vigilance and forethought with ever-changing physical responses constitutes an educational experience of unique value. Moreover, by its nature and traditions, the art lends itself more readily than most activities to the pursuit of excellence, to which there is no nobler aim of education.”

From Music in Training Colleges; Music Section, Association of Teachers in Colleges and Departments of Education, 1959.
