THE IMPORTANCE OF MUSICAL EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN IN EARLY CHILDHOOD

Summary/Abstract: Humans uniquely possess the highest form of knowledge – art. Through art, we construct worlds where we experience emotions and events that are not directly our own. Recent anthropogenetic studies have shown that the humanoid developmental line that survived was the one that began creating and expressing emotions in primitive artistic forms. Thus, embracing art is a natural progression for the human species. Drawing on the parallels between phylogenetic and ontogenetic isomorphism, art can be integrated into a child's development from the earliest moments of life, including during the prenatal stage.
