What the Research Says

A Full Academic Year Ahead

A study of 112,000 high school students found that those with sustained music participation were roughly one full academic year ahead in English, math, and science — independent of socioeconomic status.

Real Stress & Anxiety Relief

Music-based programs help teens regulate emotions and reduce test anxiety. In a study of 372 students, music therapy directly lowered anxiety scores and improved coping skills.

Confidence & Life Skills

Teens in music performance contexts report gains in self-confidence, communication skills, and the ability to manage frustration — skills that transfer well beyond the practice room.
