Learning Music

There are many reasons for learning a musical instrument (and this includes singing), including:-

  • it’s a skill for life (many of us return to it later on in life)
  • it’s fun
  • it feels good to ‘make music’ with others in a group situation
  • it’s different to school or work and a relaxing diversion
  • it’s therapy
  • it helps develop parts of the brain that benefit other subject areas e.g. maths
  • someone else you know plays and you’d like to join in with them(a precious chance to bond with the kids, perhaps)
  • you like learning new things
  • you already take someone to music lessons and are fed up with merely being seen as a source of ready cash and transport
  • you didn’t get the chance at school or earlier in life, for whatever reason

What you may not realise is that the Huntingdonshire Music School is one of the largest music schools in the UK and, apart from sitting humbly on the doorstep for some 38 years, offers many benefits that are very difficult to get elsewhere:-
