He explains how music teaches us to learn and how it can help us enhance other aspects in our lives. Javier believes that music should be an instrument used to foster learning skills. He is also convinced that eliminating or reducing music time at schools is a bad choice if a comprehensive education wants to be achieved. Javier is a composer, director, clarinetist and professor.
