concert at LACMA. I had never been to a professional music concert before and after learning about the different styles of music in class I was anxious to see what was in store for me.

notice how music is part of our lives? We hear music in our cars, coffee shops, department stores and even supermarkets. Going a day without music is hard to avoid. B.

Music is something we all enjoy and love listening to. It has shaped this country and the world as we know it. It is important we take a step back and examine how music of all types makes us feel. Histoire du Tango is a piece written for flute and guitar by Astor Piazolla (1921-1992). This piece of of music is very wonderful to listen to. The genre is classic tango but has hints of modernism with the way the composer wrote the piece. Piazolla is a big fan of using the guitar to play a rhythm…

Music and How it Effects Our Learning Mark Churchill (2007) said "Every kid--and grownup--is affected by music. It 's part of what makes us human.” Most people enjoy listening to music. From early childhood we are taught songs, like the ABC 's, that help children grasp concepts that might be otherwise challenging.
