The preschool music program
is a fun, group music class for children ages 3-4, designed to teach the basic
fundamentals of music. All classes are limited to 8 students per class and are
30 minutes once per week. The classes cover:
- Movement and music
- Learning to sing and listen
- Making music with percussion instruments
- Recognition of orchestral instruments
- Rhythm
- Melody
- Elementary note recognition
The rhythm component is
taught by doing fun games with rhythm sticks, triangles, shakers, hand drums,
etc.
For the melody component they
learn the concepts through lots of singing. They will learn high – low, loud –
soft, pitch, major – minor, etc.
For notation they learn how
to recognize musical symbols such as treble clef, bass clef, half note, whole
note, etc. (Much the same as learning your alphabet before you learn how to
read.)
We also teach them how to
recognize all the instruments of the orchestra both by sight and sound. For
example, by the end of the program they can quickly tell you if the sound they
hear is a trumpet or saxophone.
The preschool music classes
are taught by our instructors with university degrees in music who love
working with young children. The instructors are patient, fun and very
encouraging. The preschool music program prepares students to go on into
private instrument lessons when they are older.
For scheduling convenience
students can choose to do our Song & Dance program which includes the
preschool music program followed or preceded by a class in preschool dance.
