GMAC will be holding a students concert this Saturday, January 31, 2026, from 2:00–4:00 PM at Chapel Hall, The Lovett School. This is not just a student concert—it will also serve as a dress rehearsal for students preparing for the Piano Audition on February 7, 2026. Students typically perform their best at this recital—you will be surprised! Everyone is welcome.

Parents, here’s a game-changing tip: the fastest way to grow a child’s brain isn’t by piling on extra homework, it’s through more music. Studies show that children who regularly play instruments, sing, or even listen actively to music develop stronger cognitive skills, better memory, and enhanced creativity.

Music stimulates multiple areas of the brain at once, improving language development, problem-solving abilities, and emotional intelligence. Unlike traditional homework, which can feel like a chore, music engages children in a fun and meaningful way, making learning enjoyable while boosting brain growth.

Whether it’s piano, drums, singing, or even rhythmic clapping, integrating music into a child’s daily routine can have a lasting impact on their mental development and academic success. Start early and watch their brain flourish naturally.

Kids are so cute.
