How Playing An Instrument Benefits Your Brain [VIDEO]

We originally found this video on the TED Ed site and felt it was definitely worth sharing here as well.

The more we learn about playing music, the more we understand just how important it is for all the other learning we do in life. Check this out…

“When you listen to music, multiple areas of your brain become engaged and active. But when you actually play an instrument, that activity becomes more like a full-body brain workout.”

Inspired by Landfill Harmonic’s Recycled Orchestra, we’re combining Environmental Awareness and Arts Education. Students involved in the Oceanside Recycled Drum Corp use recycled and repurposed materials to create percussion instruments and will have the opportunity to perform as a large group at the North County Earth Festival on Sunday, April 27th in Downtown Oceanside.

There are currently two age groups that we’re working with, Elementary/Middle School and High School. Read below for information on how your child can participate.
