What is Music Together®?
Music Together is an internationally
recognized early childhood music program for infants, toddlers,
preschoolers, kindergarteners, and the adults who love them. First
offered to the public in 1987, it pioneered the concept of
research-based, developmentally appropriate early childhood music
curriculum that strongly emphasizes and facilitates adult involvement.
Music Together classes are based on the
recognition that all children are musical. All children can learn to
sing in tune, keep a beat, and participate with confidence in the music
of our culture, provided that their early environment supports such
learning. By emphasizing actual music experiences rather than concepts
about music, Music Together introduces children to the pleasures of
making music instead of passively receiving it from CDs or TV.
Central to the Music Together approach is
that young children learn best from the powerful role model of
parents/caregivers who are actively making music. The program brings
families together by providing a rich musical environment in the
classroom and by facilitation family participation in spontaneous
musical activity at home within the context of daily life.
Music Together is commited to helping
families, caregivers, and early childhood professionals rediscover the
pleasure and educational value of informal music experiences. All our
teachers have successfully completed the Music Together training
program. Music Together applies the latest research in early childhood
music development to the program.
