Music in Chappaqua a Replacement for DayJams.

July 10, 2012 - PRLog -- The first step of enrollment at Music in Chappaqua is to schedule a private meeting by phone or in person with our director Janet Angier. During this meeting students learning styles, experience and schedule will be discussed. After the most appropriate teacher is selected for the student, a trial lesson is recommended.

With so many activities to fit in, so many demands on childrens' time, this is a question asked by many parents.  What exactly is to be gained for the average child who is unlikely to become a professional musician or follow a career in music?  The answer is that music lessons can play a very important role in your child's general development.  Playing an instrument, right from the earliest stages, involves many skills - visual, auditory, tactile and kinesthetic.  

Unlike many specialized activities, playing an instrument helps develop both sides of the brain at the same time, increasing both intellectual functions and physical coordination, patience and confidence.  They aid the child's emotional development by providing an outlet for self-expression.  So, music lessons are an enormously valuable educational influence as well as an introduction to the wonderful world of music, and Yes, they are fun!  At Music in Chappaqua, we believe the rewards are priceless - and they are for life.
