I believe GC's post stands tall on this thread. Those of us in music education have MUCH anecdotal evidence of the value of musical activities. It may not yet be supported by good scientific research, but it is nonetheless strong evidence. Also, those who teach music know of its value, but we should not undervalue the importance of those who teach music. They are granted an opportunity to influence the lives of those they teach. The music may stand on its own, but it can be multiplied exponentially by those who teach it.
