Students involved in music programs are better at languages, have an easier time learning to read, show an improved social climate, show more enjoyment in school, and have a lower level of stress than non- music students. These students are more likely to excel in all of their studies, work better in teams, have enhanced critical thinking skills, stay in school and pursue further education. The 1812 Overture, written by Peter CHY-KOV-SKI (Tchaikovsky), to commemorate Russia's battle against Napoleon, used real life cannons and is often accompanied by fireworks.?
