Saving music has become a social responsibility. Without a communal effort music would slowly disappear and stop existing in the way it does now. If we left it to our government, music would slowly be cut from our schools.
I was doing a little searching around and stumbled into VH1. I started reading about all of the things that they are doing to help "Save the Music" in our schools. VH1's Save the Music Foundation is dedicated to restoring instrumental music programs to ensure that all children have access to a complete education. I was surprised that their initiatives were so developed on many levels. At their site, you can educate yourself on the issues surrounding the subject. They also have links to MENC Music Educators National Conference and NAMM National Association of Music Merchants who are the authorities when it comes to music education.
We should all take a little bit of the load and do our part. We can start by educating ourselves. Here is a link provided by Save the Music.
