For all of you who are simpathetic to the cause of music proliferation, and are trying to help put a stopper to the shutting down of musical programs across the country, there are many different ways that you can get involved and begin to help “Save the Music”. On VH1′s “Save the Music” homepage they have a list of ”25 Things You Can Do” to become active in advocating. The list consists of everything from making donations, to throwing a fundraiser, to speaking up in your community about the importance of music education programs. Through the last few weeks, as I have made it a personal goal to make as large of impact in furthering this cause as I possibly could, I have found that the most effective way of helping is to encourage young children in their musical endeavors, while at the same time raising awareness within your particular local community about the problem at hand, and how it should be reversed. By informing others in your community about the importance of a musical education in a child’s life, we can hope to influence the support that is needed to keep these programs expanding. Get involved, and be a part of a large commuinity of musicians and educators that are trying to “Save the Music”.
