Have you always wanted to learn an instrument, or return to one you used to play Would you like to introduce your friends to instrument lessons and help them start building a lifetime of music In many cultures, music is an important part of people’s ways of life, as it plays a key role in social and cultural activities. People may make music as a hobby, like a teenager playing the violin in a youth orchestra（管弦乐队）, or work as a professional musician or singer.
But why is music so important That may be because music can train children’s brains. Every time you listen to a piece of music, you’re actually giving yourself a deep and full-brain workout. If the brain is a muscle（肌肉）, then learning to play an instrument and read music is the basic exercise. Two new studies show that music training can change both the brain’s white matter, which carries signals through the brain, and grey matter, which covers most of the brain’s neurons（神经元）that are active in processing information. Another reason is that one can get the joy of learning to play an instrument later in life. People of any age can learn to play and get a level of satisfaction. More people in their 50s and 60s are finding that taking up a musical instrument or singing improves their lives in many ways.
Music education can provide more than just learning how to sing or play an instrument. It can also provide different skills that people may need for success in a job outside of music. So forget apps, learn a musical instrument to train your brain now!
