We couldn’t agree more. 🎹
"We have all heard the benefits such as resilience, brain development, and, of course, the power of music. And while all these things are still true, the world our kids are entering is changing rapidly! Even traditional education, K-12 and beyond, needs to be massively overhauled to ensure our students are still being educated in a world of artificial intelligence, instead of taking the path of least resistance to churn out assignments to check a box.
At (CMM), we don't need to have a massive overhaul. Our students (both children and adults) embrace the 'musicality' that leans into being human and allows curiosity, critical thinking, and musical exploration to flourish and take hold.
Musicality is a blending of technique (classical training), artistic expression, and emotional depth. We aren't creating performers who want to sound exactly like the composer. We are guiding our students by building a strong foundation of technical skills so they can express themselves through music and feel connected with themselves and their community in a more meaningful way.
This doesn't just happen." - Kathy Cordeiro
