We can do even more for our kids by giving each one of them an effective music education at school.

John Foreman

Music has always been a very important part of my life and I commend the extension of this magnificent pursuit to all Australian children.

John Symond

When it comes to your own music-making, when it’s really happening, when you’re really in the moment, totally absorbed, it’s a transcendental experience.

Bill Leak

As a once shy child, music is something that not only gave me a great sense of satisfaction, but also gave me a greater self confidence.

Jonathon Welch

If it hadn't been for music education for me, I don't know what I would have done with my life.

Kate Ceberano

I’ve sung and played guitar for many years and it has always provided me with an avenue for fun and friendships outside the high pressure life as a professional footballer.

Russell Robertson

Apart from the school choir and a couple of piano lessons as a child, I have had no musical training, yet music is my life.

What I’m trying to do in connecting two cultures (indigenous and western classical) is show that music is music. Forget all the notes on paper!

William Barton

Making music together is a joyous way of making a very important point.

Sandra Yates

Music has always been a major part of our lives.
