The Dos and Donts of Getting Your Child to Love Learning an Instrument
We all know that music can be inspiring, entertaining, and exhilarating. There are few things more enjoyable than listening to good music. If you're lucky enough to be able to play a musical instrument, you know the joy that can come from strumming those strings, tapping those keys, or blowing those reeds. It's immeasurable. But, with all the amazing aspects of music, why is it such a struggle to get your child to enjoy learning how to play an instrument? Some children naturally enjoy the learning process, while others rally against it like it with all their will. If you're the parent of such a willful musical holdout, thankfully for you there are simple ways to help your child love learning an instrument. For your benefit (and sanity), I'd like to share the following tips-the Do's and Don'ts of getting your child to love learning an instrument-so that music is always a pleasure to your family's ears. What to Do If You Want Your Child to Enjoy Learning an Instrument If you want your child to enjoy playing, then you should: Always give the highest compliments for progress and commitment Spend time listening to your child practice and play without criticizing Share your favorite music with your child Make music a part of your everyday (e.g., visit places where a variety of music can be appreciated like concerts and recitals) Provide the best equipment you can afford for your child and make sure the instrument is well-maintained Encourage your child to talk with you about his or her lessons After practice has been completed, encourage your child to experiment with music Make available the opportunity for your child to play for others without pressuring him or her to do so What Not to Do If You Want Your Child to Enjoy Learning an Instrument If you want your child to enjoy playing, then you can't: Have unreasonable expectations for progress Turn practice into a penalty Make your child perform for others when they say "no" Provide substandard equipment and think your child will be able to play like a virtuoso on it Criticize or make fun of small mistakes in your child's playing Make apologies to others if your child doesn't play perfectly What to Do If Your Child Doesn't Want to Practice If your child is losing interest in playing, practicing, and/or performing, there are a number of things you can do as a parent to help remedy the situation. Talk with your child. Find out why your child doesn't seem as interested in playing any more. Refrain from criticizing, but be sure to ask plenty of questions to see if you can get to the heart of the matter. Does your child not like his or her teacher? Choice of instrument? Time of practice? Type of music? Length of practice' If your child is taking formal music lessons, speak with the teacher and brainstorm ways to create renewed interest Assess why it's important to you for your child to learn an instrument and make sure it's your child's decision to play as well as yours Start wheeling and dealing. Talk out an agreement with your child. If your child will commit to continue with lessons for a set period of time, he or she can choose to quit after fulfilling that commitment Be the best cheerleader you can be. Your enthusiasm, support, and compliments can make all the difference in the world to your child. Be their number one fan! Ultimately, you just want our kids to learn a love for music as well as a love for learning, right? There are few more satisfying experiences than when a child learns both of these life lessons. Do everything you can to foster a passion for learning and music in your home. Knowing what to do and what not to do is so important if want to grow as a harmonious and happy family. You can do it.

If Seals Can Sing, Why Cant You' It sounds like a side show, doesn't it? It does to me. But it's true; researchers have discovered that some varieties of seals really do sing. Indeed, male leopard seals have been heard singing complex melodies in their lonely search for a mate. Likewise, male Weddell seals, which are a very social creature, lure their mate by improvising original melodies the way a master musician would in front of an audience. Guitar Performance - Make The Most of It! Getting ready for any type of guitar performance can be a little scary at first, but if you are well prepared, you will find the experience much easier to handle.

When these two elements are out of balance, your musical endeavors can get sidelined. The British Invasion The Kasabian concert at the Kool Haus seemed like a concert somewhere in England (even though I haven't been there).

Which is Best' There are basically two ways you can compose a piece of music. The first and most traditional way is to write out the melody and then harmonize it. Some call this working from the top (as opposed to the chords on the bottom.) The second approach is where you create some kind of rhythmic harmonic pattern and improvise (or compose) the melody on top. Now, which one is best for New Age music? So You Wanna Learn How To Start a Record Label' Well, you love music so much that you have decided you want to start a record label of your own. This can be a very exciting step and a fun one. The good news is, anyone can start their own record label if they know the right steps. It won't be an easy road by any means, but it is possible if you really desire to do it. Music to Echo Your Mood In what way do the kinds of music (rock, rap, classical, instrumental, etc.) change or alter our mood and in what way do our moods effect what music we listen to? SOUNDS GOOD TO ME - Eliminate Throat Tension As a vocal coach, I hear it all the time. I love to sing but when I do, I get hoarse and need to shout to be heard after only a few hours. Some days I just want to give up. What am I doing wrong? What can I do about it? Yo, is Rap Just Another Four Letter Word' Flaunting any excessive or anti-social behavior is considered brazen. When it is no longer considered brazen it is proof that it has become embedded as part of our culture. Not to say this is a good thing, after all headhunting was considered a cultural norm in some societies. The question to ask here may be, was rap ever truly a part of our culture? Will it eventually run out of steam and go the way of things like doing the twist, afro haircuts or break dancing? I for one would argue that it is not truly a part of the American cultural scene, but is a forced, twisted and contrived money machine that appeals to only the basest passions of the youth in our country. The Time Machine Exist! We call it music, ever noticed how vividly music triggers memory?

For those who want to spend years learning how to play other peoples music, note reading is the way to go. For those who want to create their own special music, chord understanding is a must - and much easier to learn. It is far better to learn how to make music first than it is to read it on a piece of paper. The Bagpipe and Its History You may have heard that bagpipes are a Scottish invention; you may have heard that they are an Irish invention. The truth (of course) is neither one. The bagpipe was invented in ancient Samaria, in Israel. The Bible mentions the instrument in the book of Daniel chapter 3, where it is listed as one of the instruments use to call the people to worship a statue. This event takes place in ancient Iraq, which was then part of the Babylonian empire. 10 Music Download Legal Points Everybody's doing it: downloading music and sharing files.

Can one be sued without a great intrusion into personal lives of an individual?

Throat Singing In Inuit Culture Originally, Inuit throat singing was a form of entertainment among Inuit women while the men were away on hunting trips. It was an activity that was primarily done by Inuit women although there have been some men doing it as well. In the Inuit language Inuktitut, throat singing is called katajjaq, pirkusirtuk or nipaquhiit depending on the Canadian Arctic region. It was regarded more as a type of vocal or breathing game in the Inuit culture rather than a form of music.
