Music Together® is an internationally renowned early childhood music program for Children Newborn to Age 5 and the Grownups who Love Them. First offered to the public in 1987, it pioneered the concept of a research-based, developmentally appropriate early childhood music curriculum with parent or caregiver involvement.Music Together classes encourage your child to sing in tune, create rhythms, and participate with joy and confidence in the music of many cultures, given early exposure to a rich musical environment. You, the parent or caregiver, regardless of your own musical background, are inspirational for children to develop musically. Children and adults bond through active participation in fun and informal classes, bringing home the music with CD's and a songbook for spontaneous music-making in daily life.
Our classes include a community of children and their families sharing songs, instrument play, rhythm chants, and movement activities in relaxed, playful, non-performance-oriented setting. A new song collection every semester for three years, featuring great arrangements of original and traditional songs in a wide variety of tonalities, meters, and cultural styles.

Mixed-Age Class Description: This is the essential Music Together class, one that a child can attend from birth through age four through all nine song collections. This basic class follows the recommendations of child development researchers—grouping children of a variety of ages because this fosters natural, family-style learning. Younger children enjoy watching and imitating older ones; older children learn by leading younger ones; and adults are happy because the children in the family can go to class together. Each child participates at his or her own level in singing, moving, chanting, listening, watching, or exploring musical instruments. Any caregivers—parents, grandparents, nanny—can bring the children. The whole family is welcome for this important family music experience.
