Summer
2008 Classes "Family
Time "
Session
1 (5 weeks)
/ Session
2 (5 weeks)
A one-room schoolhouse approach to music. With
older children ready to show the little ones how it's done and the
younger ones eager to learn, Family Time becomes a multi-layered
learning environment. Each week, a Kindermusik Educator will introduce
basic musical concepts and then give you the instruments, and the
structured free time to put those concepts into play.
Your children will listen to instruments and to
each other, learn from their peers and older children, and enjoy
music and movement with hoops, scarves and tumble-around play. Story
time and family jams, puppet play and happy singing—all the
Family Time activities encourage discovery and exploration and foster
sharing and social skills too. In this special place for musical,
social and emotional learning, your children will strengthen their
ties with each other and with you. You'll play instruments together,
dance together, share, and take turns, and see how music can bring
you closer as a family, and your children will start developing
the skills they'll need in school and on the neighborhood playground.

Adults Camp
"Let's
Do This!"
You have wanted to
do this for yourself, and there is no better time than right now.
Music can take you out of the "day to day" like nothing
else can. Get lost in learning about music through the keyboard
and you'll realize as we all have - it's a great escape - a way
to sharpen your brain, to express yourself
- and most of all to have a good time developing a healthy and rewarding
hobby. While the rewards are too numerous to mention, I will say
that we will be exploring the following areas of musicianship: chords
and chordal accompaniments, techniques for strengthening your fingers,
various styles of music, duet and ensemble playing, methodologies
for continued development and success in music, ways to be creative
through music, and music theory. Summer classes are an opportunity
to try lessons for 11 weeks and go from there. See you here!
