Things to Think Before selecting a Music teacher for your Kid

Teaching music is something that left many parents searching for their children. The most common time in the pursuit of musical training is very early in the summer or during the school year starts again. When choosing a music teacher or school, there are several factors to consider.

First, what instrument is playing, what your child or if you want to play? If the piano or violin, it is likely that teachers in the region can learn. If the less common, such as the bassoon and bass, it is possible that little or no teachers in your area. When a music teacher in your area instrument for your child, not to hire him or her immediately. Look at his credentials to see whether it has jurisdiction to learn this instrument. If you can not be a qualified teacher in your area to find, you might look elsewhere.

The places where you can see high quality teachers are: local music stores (for recommendations or taught in the home), local universities, teachers in local music directory (private schools of music will be in the list) or by word of mouth. Ask friends for names of the teachers of their children. "Remove the recommendations of music teachers or owners of music stores in your area. Have a large number of recommendations.

Once you have a list of music teachers in their area, a list of questions for these people when you meet them. These are all questions you should ask:

* Did you play this instrument professionally? Otherwise play an instrument and professional?

* How long have you played this instrument? How long were you a musician?

* What is the originin music? Do you have degrees? The benefits of education?

* As the working-age children more comfort? What level of performance that feels more comfortable?

* What is your philosophy of music education? Do you work in the musical talents are not directly related to the instrument?

Wait until the teacher has extensive experience in the implementation of the instrument, even if it is primarily played the instrument. For example, the violinists to play, and learn the viola and other string instruments. May teach clarinet and saxophone, or vice versa. The teacher must have studied and played many shows in each instrument.

It is better to have someone who at least studying one musician or become a teacher instead of a high school student. Someone half year or higher and have field experience, or experience a further presentation. Education Bachelor's or even earlier is better for some teachers, but more is not everything, especially in younger people.

Your teacher must be comfortable working with children in the age of your child and skill levels. They should also learn skills in addition to the basic operations. A good teacher of music in the background working on rhythm, pitch, playback of music and other basic skills with a young musician. If the teacher says he is not reluctant to hire if he is good at teaching the instrument.

A red flag in the teachings of the instrument itself as the teacher insists on using exactly the same with all books, and education by the same all the time. A good tutor must adapt their approach to every student who comes in must also be flexible in what is seen during the lesson. If a teacher seems to require that students largely prepared each time it is not prepared to answer questions or a student who pushes his students hard, do not hire help.

Find someone you want who you think you and your student can work. Someone who teaches musical whole, not just the instrument. Someone who is flexible with you and your child. Someone who has extensive experience and know what they talk. When you register you can rent one of these excellent music teacher and a great musical experience!

Music existed even before the human race. It is widely believed that music is divine. Although there have been quite a good number of researches and attempts to find the effects of music, there has been only a little that have been discovered so far. It has been discovered that even animals exhibit emotional responses to the meaningfulness of music.

In the human life, music has an integral part right from birth to death. The lullaby that soothes a crying child and puts it to sleep is the first meaningful music every human child hears. There are also very popular elegiac songs that pierce through the hearts of listeners and invoke a never before emotional response from within.

Shakira's Upcoming Album


Shakira, Everybody knows about her and her hip. She became famous in "Hips Dont Lie" (my favorite song), now she is going to release her new album "She Wolf". "She-wolf is the woman at daytime and the animal at night", this is the one line concept of her album "She Wolf". "She is a woman who knows what she wants and she goes for it. She's in touch with her most subconscious desires and she satisfies them — and she defends her freedom and her liberties and she does it with her teeth and claws, like a wild animal", this is what Shakira explained for upcoming album.

For this album she keep her composure while real life wolves surrounded and sniffed at her heels and she also said "But it was all fine. I think I was the most dangerous wolf of all of them".

The video is Shakira's attempt to imagine and showcase what it might feel like to be a she-wolf trapped in a cage, unable to escape and raging — with killer dance moves, of course — against her imprisonment. "I just wanted to express what it feels like for a she-wolf to be in captivity, to be in a golden cage," she explained. "I think I've been in a golden cage most of my life — and now not anymore." She also said in this album "she will be in cage and i'am going a little bit wild and i get a little carried away and start doing all kinds of outrageous stuff and hanging upside down and doing stuff that wasn't planned".

Hat's off to her hardwork. All the very best from music dot net to your upcoming album.... :)

Music colours our life in many different way.The one who live without music is like living in the world of darkness. They cannot feel the happiness of life from music and in their world of darkness there will be no colours, no feelings...There is no life without music and lets enjoy music to feel the world of happinesss alone.

Music is a friend to the friendless.

Health and Music in Music Dot Net


Music is everything to me, listening to music you can have a positive effect on your health as it helps you to relax and de-stress and also make you feel happy. Music can stimulate brainwaves, with faster beats bringing sharper concentration and more alert thinking, it also reduce the blood pressure, muscle tension and more. Listening to a joyful music will have a healthy effect on blood vessel function.

Playing or listening to music too loud can have negative health effects. Higher frequencies will have most effect on your hearing, so hear low frequencies music, make you feel quite in your mind, as it causes your body and organs to vibrate.

Music has been an intergral part of every culture since the beginning of human civilisation, it brings people together and spreads messages and reminds you that you are alive. It has many more benefits than health risks but remember to take your earplugs with you when going to a club, just to ensure you'll be listening to music for many more years to come!

Have fun with music dot net...Enjoy music...Take care of your health :)

Backstreet Boys Rocks


Today i like to post about backstreet boys journey in the pop world. Their first concert, on July 8, 1993, was performed for 3,000 teenagers at Sea World in Orlando, Florida. After that they became famous in US. Their first international song was published in 1996, "I'll Never Break Your Heart", this became a No.1 song in that year. The group earned their first platinum record in Germany and toured Asia and Canada. They became one of the most successful debut artists in the world.

The Second Album "Quit Playing Games With My Heart" was released in 1997, this album sold around 15 million copies. In 1999, the boys received their first Diamond Award from the RIAA for shipment of 10 million copies of their self-titled album.

Their gave some beautiful numbers to us like, "The One", "Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely", and "I Need You Tonight", "I Want It That Way" and goes on....

And my favorite songs are "I'll Never Break Your Heart", "Quit Playing Games With My Heart" and "Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely", these songs will do something to my heart and mind.

Now they are working on a new album "This is US". They formally announced the dates for the South Americans and European. The Boys say that their first single will be released in July and the album released in September-October.

I am waiting for the release of "This is US".
