Some believe that learning and listening to music, particularly classical music, at a young age is tied to success in the future.
In Columbia, there are many efforts to get children interested in classical music: multiple avenues for music education, and even classical music performances in town targeted at kids.
Today on Intersection, we’ll talk about how young people in Mid-Missouri are exposed to these influences, and about some of the challenges in reaching them.
Guests:
Missouri Symphony Society Maestro Kirk Trevor
Coordinator of Fine Arts for Columbia Public Schools James Melton
Director of Columbia Academy of Music Greg Hausman
