Music Education is important to begin at a young age


 
Each year The Asian Youth Orchestra offers young, talented musicians from across Asia the opportunity for advanced study, performance and international concert tours with celebrated artists and conductors. And every year we recruit some of the most talented, and hard working, pre-professional performers. The Asian Youth Orchestra was designed for just this reason, to celebrate the excellence of local, young musicians and encourage new generations of talented individuals-- brought to life by Richard Pontzious with the help of Ben and A. Jess Shenson as well as Sally Aw and Yehudi Menuhin. They dreamed of offering opportunities for Asia’s brightest young musicians for advanced study and performance in an international environment after Richard Pontzious saw the extreme need during his time in Taiwan, Japan and China in 1967.

Our passion for music runs high, especially when it comes to inspiring our local youth, and why we firmly believe that Music Education is important to begin at a young age. The benefits go far beyond what you may think! Whether your child is born to be a performer or would prefer to stay out of the spotlight, learning how to play an instrument is extremely beneficial.

Here’s a few of the reasons music education important, especially for children:


Learning how to play an instrument is a very mentally stimulating activity that can improve your child's concentration levels, as well as the ability to make logical decisions, and enhance memory. Children who study music also tend to have larger vocabularies, advanced reading skills and are better able to work together as a team. Teamwork is very important as your musical skill progresses! Daily music practice cultivates patience and discipline, as your child learns to set and follow schedules, meet deadlines, and is consistently practicing for better results. These traits can assist our youth in becoming successful later in life-- whether pursuing a musical career or not.

Another, often desired, trait that children pick up during music lessons is patience and discipline-- which in turn helps them to maintain and improve the ability to stay calm and composed in social settings. Musical training is also associated with an increased in imagination and creativity. Creative individuals utilize their creativity in every part of their lives, whether it’s their job or a recreational activity.
