Why is it important?
Music is an indispensable neurobiological tool that improves our mental health and happiness.
Perspectives
I learned Music after I graduated with a Bachelor of Science and became a teacher. I recorded the experiences in my memoir: THE LAND OF MY ANCESTORS' SEPULCHERS: AND THE WORLD OF A TEACHER-RESEARCHER. (It is on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/author/miranda-yeoh) Music education provided me with the skills and empathy to get along with peers and students to make a significant contribution to the lives of others. People may forget what you said, but they remember they felt better when you were around.
