Music Together^® Classes

• Fully trained, registered Music Together teachers lead groups of six to twelve children and their parents or caregivers (nannies, babysitters, grandparents, or relatives) in forty-five minutes of music and movement experiences.
• Each weekly class offers a dozen songs and rhythmic rhymes, including fingerplays, small- and large-movement activities, and instrument play.
• Children and their adults have opportunities to create and improvise—making up new words to songs, offering movement ideas, making silly sounds, and sharing musical ideas from the family's play at home.
• The relaxed, playful, non-performance-oriented classroom setting respects and supports the unique learning styles, developmental levels, and temperaments of all participants, creating a strong sense of community.
• Tuition includes our semester music on CD, as well as downloads of all the songs and a free app to listen to the music on-the-go. Tuition also includes a full-color illustrated songbook and online musical resources, as well as access to the song notation for every song so you can play along on your own instruments at home! Our goal is for your family life to be infused with music!

Music Together Song Collections & Resources

The Music Together core curriculum (for Mixed Age and Babies classes) includes a mix of original songs and traditional tunes from the folk, jazz, and world music traditions in a variety of tonalities and meters. By presenting a range of musical styles from lyrical to blues, from folk to boogie, Music Together provides children with a rich music experience that stimulates and supports their growing music skills and understanding.

Music Together's twelve song collections are each identified by its their own color, instrument name, and graphic— and are presented in a three-year cycle of four semesters per year (winter, spring, summer, and fall).

Music Together's Rhythm Kids^®® program (the "next step" after our Mixed Age classes) is presented in nine song collections-- each identified by its own color, animal name, and rhythm patterns from around the world. 

All sessions are non-sequential, so families may join during any semester and attend class for three full years before cycling back to re-experience the collections from their growing children’s ever-changing perspectives. Because music learning is cumulative, with children reaping developmental benefits that build over time, we encourage their participation for as many years as possible from infancy through the early elementary years. 

Music Together recordings have outstanding arrangements that are fun, sophisticated, and loved by children and grownups alike. The music is pitched in just the right range for children's voices and includes songs, rhythmic rhymes, tonal and rhythm patterns, and instrumental play-alongs. All of the songs are suitable for mixed-age groups, perfect for childcare centers or families with children of different ages.

Our mission at Music Together^® is "to make the world a better place by making it more musical". This means we truly hope you'll take the music home with you and infuse songs into your every day. With this in mind, every family receives at-home resources so the musical play can continue in the car, at dinner time, or wherever you spend time together!
