Piano for children improves learning ability

Allegro Music Academy ®

"University of California, Irvine, researchers found that after six months of piano lessons, preschoolers performed 34% higher on spatial-temporal testing than those who received no training and those who received computer training."

      Why Music?
  • 95% of American believe music is part of a well-rounded education
  • 90% of American believe music brings a family together

(Gallup Survey of American Attitudes towards Music, 2000)

For ages, amateur and professional musicians have talked about music's life-affirming qualities. But just the last decade, science has finally begun to prove what so many have known in their hearts for so long: Music making has life-enhancing powers.

 

Piano lessons for children aged 5 and up, as well as advanced piano lessons for adults. Our music studio serves the Laredo, TX, area and we accept students from age 6 through adult for instrumental lessons after an interview. It is our purpose to provide quality music instruction and to cultivate appreciation for music at an early age.

We have two music student recitals in the year, one in the Winter and one in the Spring. All students are prepared and encouraged to participate.

All instrumental lessons are private and meet once a week. For more information contact us.

  Our year-round programs allow families to participate in the joy of learning music throughout the year. Email or call Andrew or Rebeca for program and class schedules.

"Second grade students who were given four months of piano keyboard training, as well as time using math puzzle software, scored 27% higher on proportional math and fractions tests than children who received no special instruction. They were also able to solve proportional math problems at a sixth grade level"
