    Exactly. I also had the thought, if you breakdown music composition, it’s basically math. Music is math.

      And numerous studies showing the growth in other subjects when music is (actually) taught in elementary. It is crossing the streams, so to speak.

      It is also what makes us human, not robots.

        I once saw a study where they did a brain scan on someone while playing music. The results were fascinating. I’m bout to double check it’s been so long, but I’m near certain it lights up all parts of the brain. Something amazing happens when we play music. It absolutely is a core human experience.
