I want my daughter, who is 6, to be good at maths (of course what she will want will override this). I have heard that people who play musical instruments tend to be good at maths too. I have enrolled my daughter on a music course, which she started today. Now, I do believe that music in itself is important too and not only useful to help you better understand maths. 

Given that everyone in this forum is either good at maths or at least very interested in it, I wanted to ask you all of your experiences with this. Do you play any instruments? Do you like a certain type of music? Do you think that there is no connection between music and maths? Is there anything else you do, have done to get yourselves interested at or good at maths?
