Popis: In the Indian culture, music has always been accorded an important place. However, when it comes to mainstream education in schools, music has generally been accorded a secondary status. A fair amount of recent research supports the value of music as part of a well-rounded education. But the studies are admittedly few. Music provides children with a means of self-expression, provides them with an internal glimpse of other cultures and equips them with other skills. Much remains to be learnt about the connection between music and learning. The effects of learning music are not limited to learning but these effect other psychological and personal aspects of learners. This study investigated the effect of learning music on personal values of a sample of 400 adolescents from different schools of Delhi. The results showed that learning music does leave a positive effect on personal values of adolescents.
