In My Own Words:
Have you ever noticed how older musicians seem younger than their ages? Hmmm… Have you ever wondered how “those people” do that magical stuff with their fingers on strings and valves and buttons create music? When you learn how to do music you crack the code of that magic and enter what I think of as the great garden in the land of fun!! The benefits to the brain and the body have been well documented. Children get better at math and social skills. Adults feel better as they become sharper in mind. It’s even good exercise to play in a band! Hey, go for it!
