Ages 4-6
Music Makers is a playful, first-year class for children ages 4–6 designed to prepare them for formal piano study. Children explore music through singing, creative and structured movement, instrumental play, ensemble work, and guided listening.
Classes build essential musical skills such as pitch matching, beat competency, ensemble playing, and early music notation. Children begin to move from aural learning to recognizing musical patterns visually, supporting the development of memory, concentration, symbolic thinking, and self-expression.
Through themed activities drawn from home environments and global cultures, students engage in songs, rhythm and tonal patterns, poetry, movement games, listening exercises, and hands-on exploration—laying a strong foundation for confident music-making and future piano study.
Start Date: TBD
Time: TBD
Classes run for 13 weeks and a minimum of 5 children must be registered for the class to run. Tuition is due by the start of class.
