    The Musical Child - Part 3

    The TWO TYPES of Musical Giftedness Musical intelligence was defined by Howard Gardner, author of Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences, as "an individual who likes to sing or hum along to music, appreciates music, may play a musical instrument and remembers song melodies." Children who have an extremely high musical intelligence are prodigies. In this series, we will explore what is means to be "musically gifted," what teachers and parents can do to foster the

    Multiple Intelligences & Music Lessons

    Back in 1983, American developmental psychologist, Howard Gardner, proposed his model that the human mind is not limited to only one or two types of intelligence, but that there are multiple ways in which a person may be “intelligent.” Intelligence is not a single general ability. It's more than the ability to work well with numbers or words but includes a range of skills and abilities. You can picture it this way, the human mind is not a calculator that is programmed to do

    Music for Life – 15 Ways Music Benefits Intellectual Health

    In the last "Music for Life" post, we learned about how music benefits us physically. Now, let's explore how learning music is good for our intellectual development. Music is beneficial to our brains. In fact, music is hardwired into us. Research shows that babies cry to the sound of common musical intervals. The sing-song chants of young children are often a series of minor-thirds. (Think "Rain, Rain, Go Away.") In the case of stroke victims, music aids recovery of verbal sk

    Music for Life – 10 Ways Music Benefits Physical Health

    Music is recognized as a life-affirming activity around the world. Historically, priests, shamans, and medicine men and women used music, especially the voice and drumming, as a way to treat and heal physical, mental, and spiritual illness. The fields of Music Therapy and Sound Healing have grown exponentially in recent years as current psychological and medical research shows how music positively affects our physical and intellectual wellness, as well as our emotional and me

    Why is a teacher better than a tutorial?

    In this day and age, basically everything you can want to learn how to do or study has an online tutorial or a popular book. There are videos to teach you to sing like a diva, videos that will teach you how to blend paint colors, and videos to teach you how to plié. You can watch to learn how to speak conversational Spanish or change a truck tire. We are lucky to living in an age where we have so much knowledge right at our fingertips. It is a great privilege that through vid
