Group classes are a great foundation for beginning students to learn a new instrument in a fun and social atmosphere. The skills learned in group instruction will build students’ knowledge of an instrument, preparing them for private instruction. MUSIC FOR LITTLE MOZARTS 4-6 years Music for Little Mozarts is a joyful piano course specifically designed for children 4-6 years old and includes movement, song, play and pretend activities, designed to provide a balance between the discipline necessary for playing piano and the enjoyment derived from the process of music-making. 15-weeks, 50 minutes, $375 per term (4-5 years): Tuesdays at 3:00pm (5-6 years): Thursdays at 3:00pm (5-6 years continuing students only): Thursdays at 4:00pm BEGINNING PIANO 7-8 years Students learn the basics of rhythm, notation and ear training in a relaxed, creative group setting that incorporates music and movement with basic keyboard skills. By the end of the second term, students will be able to read simple melodies, improvise a melody with chords and work with basic rhythmic patterns. 15-weeks, 50 minutes, $375 per term (7-8 years): Tuesdays at 4:00pm GROUP VOICE 7-12 years If you love to sing for your friends and family, or even in the shower, this is the class for you.
