The Benefits of Singing
"Singing benefits us in many ways we do not completely understand.
Many writers have described the positive physical, mental, emotional
and spiritual effects of music. Some even believe
music will be the medicine of the future.
Singing in a chorus improves
creativity,
social skills,
community involvement,
academic skills,
listening skills,
team building skills,
discipline and
political awareness.
In addition, singing with others helps bridge social gaps,
allowing us to connect with people of different
social, ethnic and religious backgrounds.
A wealth of multicultural choral music provides singers
the opportunity to experience the
music and language of others."
