Draft

This piece should include some theory, models and examples about teaching various subjects through music.

Use cases

Using music as medium seems to be fairly popular in language education but also in some religious cultures. I also have seen examples of science education (e.g. They Might Be Giants – teaching science through music) and social issues/civic education.
