"Lily has taken Music Together since she was about 4 months old and has gotten so much out of your classes over the past 3 years! Her preschool teacher told me she chooses music as her favorite activity in theclassroom, when they
are given 'free time.' She sings (on key most of the time!) and dances to the music - also noted by her teachers. When I asked Lily what her favorite part of school was, she answered happily: the music and singing!"
"I know that our involvement in the Music Together classes has taught our daughter that music is and always will be an essential part of her life. We can't thank you enough for that! Your enthusiasm, creativity, and knowledge made all our classes a fantastic experience!" - Jennifer Russell

About Us:
Our Music Together classes build on your child's natural enthusiasm for music and movement. We'll help you provide your child with the basic musical skills needed to enjoy school and social musical activities, and to study an instrument should he or she choose to do so. Music Together is a research-based, international developmentally-appropriate approach to early childhood music and movement. Pioneered as a project by the Center for Music and Young Children (CMYC) in 1985 in Princeton, NJ, the Music Together philosophy helps nurture your child's inherent musicality. Our goal is to support your child's journey toward reaching basic music competence (BMC), the ability to keep a beat and sing on tune.
We believe all children are musical and can achieve BMC. Our program emphasizes the participation of parents/caregivers to act as musical role models as well as support adults in gathering essential observation skills and knowledge to reclaim the joy in being their child's most important music teacher.
Our classroom atmosphere is ideal for children to learn through exposure and experimentation. Young children's musical growth occurs best in a playful, musically rich environment, free from direction and performance pressure. A great foundation for a lifetime of musical enjoyment!
Babies Classes:
Designed as a one semester introduction for newborns to 8 months. Parents/Caregivers are essential role models in music making with babies through song, dance, fingerplay and rhythmic chants. Come gurgle, coo and learn how to "play musically" with your baby. Understand your infant's musical development and the benefits of early exposure.
Mixed-age Classes (newborn - Age 5):
Free from the expectation to perform, children can discover the process of musical expression at their own developmental pace and in their own learning style. The music repertoire inlcudes activities that are accessible, interesting and fun. Our focus on adult/child interaction creates an environment in which the whole family learns how to "play musically" together. This is a great atmosphere that enables siblings to attend together.
Parents / Caregivers:
Regardless of thier own musical abilities, adults are encouraged as role models to participate and create essential live music-making experiences to foster children's musical growth. Come rediscover the joy and magic of music making while nurturing your child's love of music and movement.
Community Music Making:
How many opportunities do we have to become the "music makers" instead of the "music consumers"? Self expression is generated through the repetition of rhythmic chant, singing, large/small movement and instrumental exploration. Children's work is play - improvisation, humor and fun are built-in components of our program! Adults and children build their musical vocabulary for sound and movement and add new songs to their repertoire. Our non-formal environment gives children and adults the opportunity to practice live music making. We invite families to be guided in discovering the value of spontaneous musical play in their daily lives.
