Music Fundamentals, Ages 5+ (entering K recommended)

Explore, Discover, Create is a discovery-based experience that fosters a student's understanding of music fundamentals in a fun and creative way. Class sessions will consist of musical based movement, group discovery, and small group centers covering beginning musical knowledge such as rhythm, feeling the beat, and note reading -- all the essential tools for a student as they grow and prepare for private instrument study.  In addition to the basics class will include aural enrichment. This exploration of sound will introduce young students to some of the great composers such as Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, who is known for compositions that are filled with sound coloring providing vivid musical imagery; French composer Camille Saint-Saëns who wrote Carnival of the Animals; and Sergei Prokofiev who composed the children's classic Peter and the Wolf. Students will enjoy listening and participating in interactive activities as they walk through these composers' best known works.

Each group will meet for 13 classes over the course of the fall semester. Group Class Semester fee: $300 (payable in 3 installments of $100 each), OR pay entire fee up front $275 ($25 discount). Music and instrumental rental/purchase not included in class fee. Choose one option below to register now!

Ms.Esme Wong is a fantastic teacher, she shows a genuine interest in teaching our daughter. She has always gone above and beyond to make sure we are ready for performances.

My son was struggling with a certain difficult piece and his teacher was able to positively encourage him to the point where he was incredibly motivated to do something he originally thought he could not do. Great studio and very friendly staff. Very responsive administration too.
