The Relationship Between the Brain and Music There are different perspectives on the relationship between the brain and music. Kindermusik is one such perspective and echoes this relationship strongly through develpment of the whole child - emotional, physical, musical, cognitive, language and social development - stimulating those areas of the brain which govern these particular areas of development. Research has shown that Music 'rewires neural circuits', for example neurologists studying the relationship between music and the brain have discovered that musicians have a larger brain area which governs touch perception according to an article written by Dr Arthur Harvey. Kindermusik is unique in that it provides activities that create new neural pathways in the brain, thereby promoting accelerating learning in young children. This occurs strongly as a result of regular use of the At home materials. In fact, Kindermusik research shows that children who participate in the arts for three hours per day, three days per week for at least one year are:
Kindermusik research guarantees results, particularly with the diligent use of At home materials and regular class attendance. On completetion of the seven-year Kindermusik program, your child is most likely to be two years ahead of their peers at school-going age..!
