Each week for 60 minutes, up to ten students explore many facets of music-speaking and singing, moving, listening, creating and playing instruments, and learning about reading and writing music. During each class, creative movement or dances are interspersed with quiet activities like drawing or focused listening. The curriculum introduces the glockenspiel, a pre-keyboard instrument, as well as string and woodwind instruments like the dulcimer and recorder. Parents are invited to share in the last few minutes of class. There are four 15-week sessions of the Young Child curriculum that can be taken over a two year period. The capstone of Kindermusik, Young Child is the perfect pressure-free preparation for private instruction.

Tuition: $250 (includes materials)

CMS reserves the right to cancel classes due to insufficient enrollment. Should a class be cancelled, and/or the student is not able to be placed in an appropriate class a refund will be issued.
