Blog reader, this is John Feierabend, Ph.D., professor of music at the Hartt School, University of Connecticut at Hartford. I've just found this guy and some of his articles on-line. He's an excellent writer, and he makes compelling arguments for the absolute necessity of quality music education for young children. Check out the article "Music and Movement for Infants and Toddlers: Naturally Wonder-full" here:"If we believe adults should be able to sing to their children and dance with their spouses and appreciate good quality music literature, then we must sing to our babies, and dance with our babies, and do both with quality children's music literature. Then when those babies become 30 years old, they will be musically sensitive and be able to provide an appropriate nurturing musical environment for their children."
