  • More about WHY Music:

    WHAT (is it?)

    WHY Music is an ongoing initiative to provide people with the awareness, understanding and tools to harness the powerful benefits of music in all the areas of their lives.

    Following his introduction to the alumni and graduates of Singularity University at NASA, EarthTones founder Frank Fitzpatrick officially launched WHY Music in Autumn 2012. Fitzpatrick and his team were committed to address the gap that existed between the tremendous benefits of music to individuals and society and the understanding and application of those benefits to their development, success and wellbeing.

    As part of that commitment, Fitzpatrick and EarthTones have created a series of regularly published articles; led live talks, think tanks, and workshops around the world; piloted the first Social and Emotional Learning curriculum for underserved middle-school students; produced a short film and collection of inspiring videos; and helped facilitate national campaigns supporting music in health and education.

    WHO (does it serve?)

    Through WHY Music, we aim to inspire millions of teachers, parents, policy makers, and healthcare providers to integrate music more effectively into educational curriculums, health and wellness initiatives, media programs and social campaigns; and to teach students, patients and other individuals how to use music as a tool to bring greater balance, vitality and fulfillment to their own lives. Finally, WHY Music aims to shift perceptions, and increase awareness, around the value of music, in efforts to create an increase in funding and support for music programming in the areas we need it most – like education and healthcare.
