What Does it Teach?

  • Emphasizes melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic ear training
  • Introduces spatial skills necessary for note and rhythm reading
  • Teaches note reading
  • Studies music of the masters to understand classic form and instrumentation
  • Encourages freedom of expression and musical interpretation
  • Channels the young voice into beautiful singing by providing correct vocal models and frequent singing opportunities
  • Teaches fundamentals for harmony and chord progressions
  • Utilizes full body involvement for more effective assimilation of concepts and skills
  • Adapts skills to the piano

What does all of this mean? It develops musical aptitude. Your child will learn the things that cause us as adults to say that a person is musically talented. Can you teach talent? YOU BET!!! Research has shown that musical aptitude (talent) is more acquired than it is hereditary. “Musically talented” people are so, not because of genetics, but because of exposure to a musical environment at a young age.

3 Year Curriculum

This innovative curriculum will lead your child (entry age 4-6) from very basic music introduction using singing, and simple instruments through a three year program. By the end of the third year, students are playing piano at an intermediate level, transposing music, composing their own music, sight-reading music, and are prepared to excel in further private piano or other musical instruction.
