Music Support

 

            Billions and billions of dollars later "Houston, we have lift off." America has come along way in its developments thanks to the funds donated by the government, but how much are they doing to preserve our educational history? Everyday American's find their society getting dumber and dumber. The government has slowly begun backing away from any involvement in the continuing downfall of American intelligence, not realizing that their lack of financial support is at fault. The government needs to start providing more schools, museums, and performing art centers with the education, funds, and support that they deserve.
             Music is the perfect art. It has movement, because it progresses over a set period of time. All musical works have a beginning and an end. However, music does not restrict the audience in the way that movies or graphic art does. The listener can create whatever image she or he wants to when listening to music. It is an art that appeals to the conscious mind, but the best music also appeals to the subconscious. No thought is required to enjoy good music, though it is often thought inspiring. .
             The melodic sounds of certain types of music were proven to have a profound effect on the human brain. In 1998, a research team from the University of Wisconsin, headed by psychologist Dr. Frances Rauscher, had their incredible findings published in the Neurological Research magazine. Although their studies were performed on rats, according to that magazine issue "Their studies indicate that music training generates the neural connections used for abstract reasoning, including those necessary for understanding mathematical concepts the work has strong implications for education and enrichment programs." If the government provided funds to run such an experiment it would only make sense that they would finish it out and provide people with places to get such musical exposure. Would it not also make sense to aid the people responsible for making the music in the first place?.
