Mixed-Age
This is the essential Music Together® class, one that a child can attend from birth through age five. Based on the recommendations of child development researchers, this class groups children of a variety of ages, which fosters natural, family-style learning. Younger children enjoy watching and imitating older ones; older children learn by leading younger ones; and adults enjoy having their whole family in class together. Each child participates at his or her own level in singing, moving, chanting, listening, watching, or exploring musical instruments. Any caregivers—parents, grandparents, nannies—can bring the children. The whole family is welcome for this important family music experience.
Babies
Every child's development benefits from early exposure to music and movement. Because the early months are so important, Music Together offers two options for babies. Babies eight months and younger at the time of registration may attend a Mixed-Age Class, whether registered on their own or attending free with an older brother or sister. Babies may also take this special Babies Class offered as a one-semester introduction to Music Together. The music activities and materials are specially designed for parents who want to learn as much as possible about music development in babies. This class also provides an opportunity to meet other parents of newborns and learn some fascinating music activities you can recreate at home.
Young Voices
This class is for 5 through 7 year olds only and will introduce the vocal fundamentals of singing in a group. Through fun and dynamic activities, students will learn the basic foundations of vocal technique such as breath control, pitch, tone, and blending. We will also learn to identify intervals and master rhythmic patterns. We sing traditional folk songs, simple rounds, and also learn harmonic concepts.
Enrollment is limited to 8 students. Purchase of Music Together materials is not required for this class.
**PLEASE NOTE: Parents/caregivers must remain in the lobby area for the duration of the class. Children must be 5 years old by the first day of classes - no exceptions.
*** This class will only run for 5 weeks in the Fall beginning on November 5, 2010 ***
