MUSIC EARLY CHILDHOOD CLASSES The Early Childhood program offers classes for children ages 10 months–6 years. Following the Dalcroze method, children are gently taught listening skills, the difference between imitation and originality; and coordination and spatial concepts. Singing is an important part of the program’s curriculum. Storytelling and movement are incorporated into the classes to make the learning experience even more fun and meaningful for the child. Puppets, scarves and balls are used along with the children playing basic percussion instruments. SING ME A SONG Charlie the Lion and his puppet friends sing songs from around the world and invite the children to move to the music. In addition, storytelling is incorporated into the class lessons to help stimulate visual, aural, and mental sensors. The children play basic percussion instruments such as small drums, bells, and egg shakers to explore different rhythms and sounds. This class is for both child and parent (or supervising adult). Ages 10 months–1.5 years: Tuesdays, 9:30–10:15 am; $320 per semester MUSIC MAKES ME SMILE Singing, listening, and moving to music in different moods help the children learn how to express themselves. They also develop muscular coordination and listening skills. Basic percussion instruments such as small drums, finger cymbals, and maracas are played to explore simple rhythm patterns. Popular children songs are learned for singing and playing along with instruments. Puppets, balls, and scarves add to the funmaking in the class. This class is for both child and parent (or supervising adult). Ages 1.5–3 years: Tuesdays, 10:30–11:15 am or Saturdays, 9:45–10:30 am; $320 per semester LOVING MUSIC Listening and moving to music helps the child understand spatial concepts and improve muscular coordination. Singing and playing basic percussion instruments such as drums, sticks, cow bells, triangles, and wood blocks are used to explore different rhythms. Repertoire includes songs from around the world and musical theater. The concept of music notation is introduced in this class. Children attend by themselves. Ages 3–4 years Tuesdays, 11:30 am–12:15 pm or Saturdays, 10:45–11:30 am $320 per semester LET’S PLAY THEM ALL Children learn the basics of playing various instruments such as guitar, flutophone, violin, keyboard and drums.

MUSIC SUZUKI VIOLIN PROGRAM The Suzuki learning method is a wonderful way to introduce very young children to music. From the beginning, students and parents (or supervising adults) together experience music making. Children take one private and one group class per week with an adult. In order to help the children practice at home and reinforce what is learned during the lessons, the adults are required to attend a weekly group class during the first year of study. An interview with the Director and teacher is held prior to enrollment in the program. Children and adults may rent violins (subject to availability) from the Music School at a nominal cost. Inquire about fees. Ages 3 and up (with one parent or supervising adult) Fees for New Students: Tuition Fee: $935 per semester 3 classes: children’s private, children’s group, adult group Materials fee: $35 per semester includes child’s violin, tapes & written materials Fees for Continuing Students: Students having taken two or more semesters, not including summer session Tuition fee: $775 per semester Materials fee: $10 per semester includes tapes & written materials CHILDREN SUZUKI GROUP CLASSES 1st Year Children’s Group: Wednesdays, 5–5:45 pm 2nd Year Children’s Group: Thursday, 6–7 pm 3rd Year Children’s Group: Wednesdays, 6–7 pm 4th Year Children’s Group: Tuesdays, 6–7 pm BEGINNING SUZUKI ADULTS’ GROUP Tuesdays, 5–6 pm PRIVATE SUZUKI LESSONS Tuesdays, 2–8 pm Wednesdays, 2–8 pm Fridays, 2–7 pm ONE-ON-ONE INSTRUCTION The best way to excel in vocal and instrumental studies is by taking private lessons with a teacher. The one-on-one experience allows students to progress at their own pace with individually designed courses of study. Lessons are available in piano; the string family: violin, viola, cello, bass; the woodwind family: flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, saxophone; the brass family: trumpet, French horn, trombone; the percussion family; voice; guitar; D.J.-ing; music production; theory and composition. Students who receive tuition assistance are limited to private instruction in one discipline. They may, however, also enroll in group classes that are different from their private instrumental or vocal studies. Private Lessons (once a week): Fees per semester 30 minute lesson: $400 45 minute lesson: $625 60 minute lesson: $800 9
