Learning to play a musical instrument and playing music builds creativity, self-expression, self-confidence, and a sense of accomplishment and enjoyment.  

Music allows us to communicate and feel when there are no words to express ourselves and our emotions.

Being part of a band is a social experience that builds friendships, cooperation, team spirit, and the sense of belonging.
