BUSINESS AS WE SEE IT (Editorial)
From group lessons in school come parental
pride. Shared musical experiences tend to
bind people together, according to psychol-
ogists. A child who can look to his parents
for interest and support of his musical activ.
ities feels a areater bond between himself
and his mother and father. It nives him the
necessary feeling of being wanted for his
own contributions.
