The Indianapolis Children’s Choir is much more than just singing. Choral music is a vehicle that teaches and encourages youth to make new friends, appreciate and understand people who are different than them, be responsible and professional, participate as a member of a team, and share their personal talents in ways that will make a difference in the world.
In a longitudinal study of 147 children, those who received music lessons showed significant cognitive improvements compared with peers, including gains in memory and language skills.
Almost all of the 30 international academic sources in a 2025 scoping review reported positive wellbeing outcomes associated with learning music.
A review of 100 international research findings identified emotional self-regulation and empathy as key benefits of music education for children.
A systematic review of 26 studies found beneficial effects of music on children's emotional intelligence, academic performance, and prosocial skills — helping them relate to and support others.
