Mixed Age Music Together
Our primary teaching method is to mix ages with children newborn to 5 years in the same class. This creates a unique atmosphere where siblings can attend together. Babies 8 months and younger are free with a registered sibling. Our class allows each child the freedom to participate as he or she chooses without being burdened by age-specific expectations. Siblings over 8 months pay a reduced fee. Sing, dance, laugh, play, and get silly with us in this unique class setting! Materials include two CDs, a beautifully illustrated songbook, and a parent's guide. Classes meet for 45 minutes.
Music Together Babies
Our mixed-age format suits even the youngest infant, but we have added a special Babies Class as an introduction to Music Together for infants 8 months and younger. Begin to identify learning styles, learn sounding techniques, and nurture your child's touch and movement preferences. Our playful musical activities can delight, soothe, and energize young and old alike. Come sing, dance, laugh, play, and meet other babies and their families! Materials include two CDs, a beautifully illustrated songbook, and a parent's guide. Classes meet for 45 minutes.

Materials will be the current Music Together collection. Parents need not stay for this class, and due to the more structured setting, younger siblings may not attend, unless they are 5 to 7 years of age.
Piano I
This primary piano class is created specifically for 5-7 year olds, and meets 45 minutes weekly for 9 weeks. Piano I incorporates the extensive research of Edwin Gordon (also very influential in the Music Together program) and develops the entire musician as children sing, chant, and move to the music they'll learn to play. We'll be using the Faber and Faber series, and improvisation and creativity will be a part of every lesson from the beginning. Join us for this revolutionary approach to music education! Classes are 45 minutes in length, parents need not stay for class. Families should have a full-sized keyboard or piano at home for practice. Cost for 9-week session is $185 and includes book.
Piano II
This 'next step up' from Piano I incorporates large movement, just like in Piano I, but emphasis is placed on more extensive notation and beginning composition. Classes meet once weekly for 45 minutes, and parents need not stay. Piano I is a pre-requisite for this course. Cost is $185 and includes book.
Piano III
After your child has mastered Piano I & II they may begin Piano III. More emphasis on composition, sight reading, and general music knowledge. Classes meet once weekly for 45 minutes, parents need not stay. Cost is $185 and includes book.
