The Gift of Music
Music education benefits children’s lives in countless ways. Students learn problem-solving, focus, nonverbal communication, collaboration, dedication, accountability, and how to receive constructive feedback through music. They’re able to see the result of hard work and gain confidence from it.
When learning and performing together, our students are able to create a final product that is a beautiful gift to those who hear it. Most importantly, music is a lot of fun!
That’s why every student at CCA — from kindergarteners to high school seniors — is involved in music.
