The Head of State visited the Children’s School of Music and Arts No. 1 in Tashkent.
The school was built last year with funds from the republican budget and is designed for 250 students. This school year, 145 boys and girls have been admitted to the 1st grade.
Here, the young people are educated in 12 areas outside the school curriculum. Students are selected based on creative examinations.
Almost fifty classrooms, computer labs and an event hall provide exemplary conditions. The library contains more than 5,5 thousand textbooks and scores.
The President emphasized that art serves to raise a spiritually rich generation and that the love for art must be developed from childhood. To this end, the importance of harmonizing general and musical education programs was pointed out. The task was set to strengthen the interaction between art schools, higher education institutions, theatres and other cultural institutions.
In our country, all schools are equipped with musical instruments, which contributes to the development of young people’s interests and talents. It also serves to transmit to the traditions of maqom, bakhshi art and classical music, which are our cultural values, to the younger generation.
