The value of music. Why your kid should learn music.
http://i.imgsafe.org/e004ac09a9.jpg

## I recommend playing this video and listening to the music while reading.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgL_HZF5bro

*Every time when I came back home from school and while waiting for someone to open the door, I could hear my brother playing piano. Sometimes I could hear him learning a difficult passage from some Chopin Studio or sometimes he was playing a Mozart or Beethoven sonata*.

*This little scene kept repeating during all my childhood until he moved to Germany to learn from the bests*.

*My parents always thought that it would be something good for our education to learn music. They registered us when we were little kids at the conservatory and every one of us could pick up an instrument and learn it starting a beautiful relationship with music. I learned how to play violin for six years, my oldest brother learned how to play piano and later on the guitar, my second oldest brother became a professional pianist, my third oldest brother learned to play drummer and my little sister learned how to play piano and later on guitar an bass*.

My parents before I was born

There are going to be moments when your kid is going to get bored about it or not motivated enough and he is going to prefer staying home or doing some other activity.
http://i.imgsafe.org/e0340c9b00.png

Be strong and motivate your child to keep learning music. I ensure you that your kid will thank you for that in the future. 

There have been many studies regarding the benefits of learning music:

-	It improves the language, the memory, the child's behavior and it improves the capacity to perceive the world and form mental images. 
-	It has been discovered that the brain anatomy changes after just four months of learning music. 
-	It increases the sensitivity.
-	Playing an instrument improves coordination. 
-	It improves kid´s concentration.
-	It will make your kid more patient. Perseverance and dedication will teach your kid how calm down when impatience is taking over.

### Music increases brain plasticity 
http://i.imgsafe.org/e03733e10c.png

Brain plasticity refers to the capacity of our brain to change. The grey matter can shrink or grow and this will affect directly our capacity to perform specific tasks. Although it is known that the brain of a child is more malleable it also can change as an adult by exercising it.

### Music help kids to interact to each other

As any other social activity, when a child joins a little orchestra or any musical group, bonds are made where a shared interest helps as catalyzer for the “friendship-chemical-reaction”.

http://i.imgsafe.org/e03c3c1fc4.png

### Music teaches kids to overcome fear, take risks and it increases self-confidence. 

*After 25 years I still remember the first time I played violin in front of some parents on the musical school. I remember the fear, the nervousness but mostly I remember how good I felt afterwards. I did it mum*! 

http://i.imgsafe.org/e0d6a12173.png

### Not amplified music
It´s been proved that natural frequencies benefits our sense of hearing and take out the stress.

## Learn Music, listen to music, live Music.


P.S The music from the first video is my brother and here is his introduceyourself. I convinced him to join Steemit to share his art:

I love this post, It's true Music can help your  brain especially if you start young. I played the flute in 6th grade, I never got amazing at it. But I feel liked it helped me learn how to be creative, And now I'm a full time artist. 

When we are young we need to try a wide range of different things, That way we can also find our passions early.

I actually fell a tear  while reading this post. It made me remember everything good with music. I started to play the violin at age 5 and kept on playing until I was 9, then I got interest for drums and singing instead. I played drums for  12 years and I also joined a school with musical direction  since 4th grade and were in a choir for 9 years until I graduated.  I went through so much in those years. My choir was really good too so we traveled around to different countries and competed. It was such good years in my life. 

When I graduated I lost my reasons to keep on playing. I had plans to join a music university but shit happend (close family member died) and gave me alot of money as heritage so I decided to become a investor and skip that musical university since 95% of everyone that goes there will end up in a dead end anyways.   ... That was probably my worst decision in my life. Because without the music I got so depressed and still today I feel dead inside. 
Music is so important in life and it  was so awesome to go through  my school years with music in it. 

Great post and I totaly agree!
Sorry if my eng is bad, i've never been a good writer and eng is my 3rd language so.... yeah!

PS. So in short terms what im trying to say is... Music is lifechanging, it's so important in so many different ways and if you are playing and thinking to quit, dont you fkn do it, im a great example for it... keep on going, follow what you feel and want to do even if its a dead end. If you love what to do it won't probably even be a dead end so just do it! If you are a musician and thinking to quit, it's not as easy as you might think... get ready for serious depression without your music in your life! 

Here is also a link of my choir that is so dear to me if you might be interested to listen "Venezia in Musica 2011"
Lido di Jesolo, Italien:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sqQWXp1T8Q

Hi Mestor I love the video of you choir, really refreshing. 
Thanks for your kind words and for sharing your thoughts with me. Btw your english is not that good, I´m spanish so english isn´t my first language as well. My brother will make more post about music since he is a professional piano player and I will probably too. You can see his presentacion post here at the end of this post.

Again thanks for the comment and enjoy the weekend! :)

True. My music studies (piano... when I was much younger) left a long lasting useful set of skills and attributes for the rest of my life. For example 'learning/studying discipline' that I later applied to anything I decided to master.  It also helps with socialising be it through music activities or outside the music field. Great stuff.

What an opportunity to be involved in music so young.  I got into music after teenage years, and the transformation was palpable. I went to a conservatory and realize how serious people can be about music and an instrument, and how they will process thoughts. Great to read your story!
