Why should you have a homeschool music curriculum?

• Grounding in the arts and humanities is excellent college prep for homeschoolers and traditionally schooled students.  A student’s success in college often depends on having a solid historical context for learning.
• Music was recognized in ancient times as one of the seven essentialsubjects comprising the Liberal Arts.  Music has always been central to Classical Education.
• By connecting music history to political and cultural history, we make all of history more memorable and more interesting.
• Success in any profession depends on the ability to connect with other people and to be comfortable in a variety of social situations.  Knowledge of music is an excellent social tool and confidence builder.
