Title: Music and the Brain
Over the past 20 years, there have been numerous psychological and neuroscientific studies investigating the effects that music lessons, and especially childhood music lessons, can have on cognitive abilities. In this session, I will give a teacher-friendly overview of the cognitive benefits of music education, with a special focus on how music training can promote language abilities and the importance of starting early. I will also present data from The Royal Conservatory’s Research Centre ongoing longitudinal study on the musical and linguistic benefits of early childhood music lessons, and how teachers can use these skills to benefit their own practices.
