Recreational Music Making

Anyone Can Play an Instrument and Benefit From Music Healing

The recreational music-making movement is gaining rapid support, thanks to an increasing number of programs designed to motivate people to play music who have always wanted to play music but have never had the opportunity or support.

Recreational Music Making Programs Have the Following Traits in Common:

• They Are Group Based
• A Facilitator, Rather than a Music Teacher, Guides the Group
• Top Class Performance Isn't An Imperative
• The Emphasis is on Social Interaction Not Musical Competency
• The Methodology is Replicable and Deliverable in the Same Manner at Varying Locations

The primary purpose of recreational music making is not to inspire great music but, rather, to share the joy of making one's own music, regardless the sound to discriminating ears.
