“Music can change the world because music can change people.” – Bono

 

 

What is incredible to me about music is that it gives space for connections to flourish. One of my mentors once said that if everyone was forced to be in a choir, the world would work together forever. Music is the universal language, it allows us to connect to deep levels of our brain and self that we sometimes forget exists. I am a music educator because music allows youth to be themselves in the rawest way.
