the evolution of music...

A study of 7,500 university students revealed that music majors scored the highest reading scores among all majors including English, biology, chemistry and math.

Waylon Jennings and George Jones have become country music icons throughout the

last four decades.

Records have been replaced by digital media on iPods or MP3 players.

the Billboard list. He

broke the record with 44 songs.

The United States is #1 in album sales in

With music instruction in schools, teachers

found that students were less

aggressive.

Students who participate in school band or orchestra have the lowest levels of current and lifelong use of alcohol, tobacco and illicit drugs among any group in our society.
