New Mexico
Music Educators Association
Statement of Purpose
The
purpose of the New Mexico Music Educators Association is to promote the
advancement of music education through public, private, and parochial
schools and other educational institutions of New Mexico through the
philosophy that:
Every
child has the right to an opportunity to explore and develop his
capacities in the field of music in such ways as may bring happiness
and a sense of well-being; stimulate his imagination and stir his
creative activities; and make him so responsive that he will cherish
and seek to renew fine feelings induced by music.
Every
child shall have the opportunity to experience music with other people
so that his own enjoyment shall be heightened and he shall be led into
greater appreciation of the feeling and aspiration of others.
Every
child shall have the opportunity to make music through being guided and
instructed in singing, in playing at least one instrument, both alone
and with others, and so far as his powers and interest permit in
composing music.
Every
child shall have the opportunity to grow in musical appreciation,
knowledge and skill through the educational programs that may be
offered to children and youth.
Every
child shall be given the opportunity to have his interest and power in
music be explored and developed to the end that unusual talent may be
utilized for the enrichment of the individual and society.
Every
child has the right to teaching which will develop his appreciation of
music and encourage and promote an understanding of all the fine arts.

Any additions or deletions to content should be
directed to the Executive
Director
and all technical inquiries to our web
