But what are the basics, and, if your child does show musical interest, what are the options? Below is a guide to the various ways in which music education can take place, and how you and your family can navigate through it DMYTRO VIETROVå One of the great things about music is that it can enrich a learner’s life from the very start and, regardless of the technical level reached, it will stay with them for the rest of their lives. Music is a great tool for working with young children, and is used in playgroups and nurseries across the world. A child’s musical journey could start with a lullaby and end with playing at Glastonbury or conducting orchestras at concert halls around the world – but it could be just as enriching if it simply meant making new friends in the school jazz band, taking a guitar out of its case twice a year for the rest of their life, or joining a community choir at 70. There can be a fine balance between encouraging a musical interest because of the benefits you know it will bring, and pushing a child down a route which they do not want to go down – and will not ever gain very much from. Starting out Learning the piano is a great way The first time a child hears music could have been in the of developing musicianship womb, and as a parent you might have provided the first experience of live music by singing a lullaby. But their first to classroom music – but this is also when the possibility of experience of more formal music-making is likely to be at a instrumental tuition may arise, perhaps in the form of playgroup and nursery.

At this stage, children will be lessons will normally involve weekly whole-class tuition for developing musical skills including learning about rhythm, a minimum of a term. These can take place in a variety of melody, listening, and playing together. If this is styles and instruments, from samba or African drumming something that you think your child might enjoy – an to recorder, ukulele, violin or even brass instruments outlet for their constant singing around the house or (plastic trombones and trumpets have become popular in rhythmic drumming on any surface in sight, perhaps – recent years). then see if any of the listed providers run sessions near What’s known as ‘progression’ from schemes like this – you, or ask locally for recommendations. what happens next for children who show an aptitude and interest – is a big issue in music education.

Black US Army bands and their bandmasters in World War I Peter M. Lefferts This essay sketches the story of the bands and bandmasters of the twenty seven new black army regiments which served in the U.S. Army in World War I. They underwent rapid mobilization and demobilization over 1917-1919, and were for the most part unconnected by personnel or traditions to the long-established bands of the four black regular U.S. Army regiments that preceded them and continued to serve after them. Pressed to find sufficient numbers of willing and able black band leaders, the army turned to schools and the entertainment industry for the necessary talent.
