Philosophy Music is a significant part of American life. It is part of our history, our traditions and our heritage. It is imperative that we, as music educators or music lovers, introduce to our children this important piece of our lives. I believe could create music, listen to it, analyze it, experience it, and understand the impact music has on our world. Music brings communities together during holidays, during tragic times and in everyday life. It is our duty to teach our youngsters to under stand this sense of community and the impact music has on it. Sharing music is a way of communicating ones self. It’s an art form in itself that people can enjoy actively or passively. Everyone can enjoy and be engaged in music, no matter what the individual’s ability is… they can enjoy and be a part of the musical world. Joshua
