Pitts (2016)
Through doing 3 different case studies, Pitts found that future music participation is encouraged at a young age
and by providing students with the tools to succeed in numerous different ways in music (rather than one
instrumental or vocal track). This should be the goal of general music in early childhood. If the teacher offers not
only skills, but also encouragement and opportunities of different types, lifelong music is more likely.
