School of Music
Welcome to Kindermusik!
Experience the power and joy of music-making with your child
Kindermusik is an experience for parents & guardians to share with their children, creating and absorbing music in a fun and nurturing environment. Classes are organized into five stages, beginning with the earliest of infants through to young children of 5-7 years old.
Our programs focus on process rather than performance, thus nurturing the total development of children. This child-centered approach is carefully structured to reflect your child’s age and developmental stage. Kindermusik is an inclusion program, and instructors are happy to work with you to provide any accommodations your child may need. By encouraging children’s creative and musical development, Kindermusik builds a foundation for further music study.
Kindermusik is practiced internationally, with curricula designed by experts in the fields of Early Childhood Music Education and Child Development with an aim to recognize and celebrate the potential in every child, working to enhance knowledge, confidence and enthusiasm for learning through the power of music-making.
Register today to secure a spot for your child in one of our many Kindermusik programs, and scroll down to find full program descriptions for the coming year!

The Next Step
The Next Step: Exercising the Musical Brain
A class to follow Kindermusik for the Young Child
Using the Dalcroze Method of music teaching, this class will build on the foundation of Kindermusik for the Young Child. It will incorporate movement to explore and better understand musical concepts such as melody, phrasing, harmony, pulse (or steady beat) and rhythm. We will sing and use our bodies to come to a deeper understanding of the music – in this way your child will build the base for lifelong knowledge and love of music.
Instructor: Susanne Brown (SB)
