Quotes
- "Music is a discipline, and you know when you practice something and you work really hard at something, you see the results. Learning an instrument definitely brings out a lot of discipline in children - it makes them work hard to accomplish something. Education Through Music has really brought wonderful opportunities for the kids at the school. -- Teacher, St. Clare
