The relationship between music and math goes back thousands of years to the origins of music and civilization. Both rhythm and melody can be understood mathematically. Music enhances the retention of mathematical knowledge, and incorporating musical activities, can help children and adults make the most out of opportunities to strengthen their basic math skills, and at the same time, have fun!
“Music is a secret exercise in the arithmetic of the soul, unaware of its act of counting.”
–Gottfried Leibniz, philosopher and mathematician.
