Studying music in high school is good for young people. Unfortunately, students do not think of music studies as a useful subject in high school. 1. However, studies show that the great difference studying music has made in the minds and lives of students.
2. According to Robert A Cutietta and Harvey Mercadoocasio, authors of Raising Musical Kids: A Guide for Parents, “Students who study music in high school, as a group, have higher scores than those not in bands.” Studying music may not immediately lead to higher grades. It does, however, make students gain skills that can lead to success in tests.
3. Performing as a musician increases this joy, while developing selfconfidence. According to Cutietta and Mercadoocasio, “Being involved in music in a meaningful way will add greatly to the quality of your child's life. It increases brain power along the way.”
Studying music in high school allows teenagers to develop many healthy and productive habits that will carry over into their adult lives, giving them a push towards a successful life. 4. “Kids who receive music training often make great progress in math studies.” according to psychologist Maritn Grdiner. “They just shoot ahead in math. This can't be explained by attention alone. 5.” he said. Actually, the Greek mathematician Pythagoras related math with music by ratio thousands of years ago.
