People sometimes forget about children in that while math and science are essential components of early education, so is MUSIC. In fact, one could argue that without a proper education in music, math and science skills are harder to attain. A proper education in music is like having math, science, social studies and history all rolled into one.
ASMF makes music lessons a reality for many children who would otherwise have limited or no exposure to music. The ASMF also makes it possible for students who have played previously to continue their music lessons.
Applications from the ASMF for your child and for studying an instrument may be had by calling or emailing us to the phone number or email address at the top of this press release.
It's easy, just contact us and we can set up lessons for your child.
