Group classes are back in action starting September!

NEW Kindergarten Piano (ages 4-5): take the next step after Preschool Music classes in preparation for private piano lessons!
Kids Choir (ages 7-12): learn to sing with others!

Registering for group classes supports Action A of the Core Value 'Empathy (learning to understand and care about others’ feelings)'.

WSM is committed to supporting students and families by empowering them, through music lessons, to live lives that make the world a better place for all. Our Core Values program has been created to lay out specific actions that your child can take and lessons they can learn to help them embody the Core Values.

We expect that during your time at WSM, you will see your child grow in these areas as well as adjacent ones, and that your child will develop skills as a contributing member of your community; inspiring action, leading change and building relationships.

CORE VALUE SPOTLIGHT: Empathy

The very first (but not most important!) Core Value on our list is Empathy. How do we learn to understand and care about others’ feelings in the context of a music school?

There are three practical ways!
✔️ Participate in at least two WSM group classes, masterclasses or workshops
✔️ Perform in a non-profit, charitable or benefit concert
✔️ Perform a piece of music at a WSM recital written by a composer outside the Western Cannon

Which one are you starting with? Have you completed any of these?

We expect that during your family’s time at WSM, you will see your child grow in these areas as well as adjacent ones, and that they will develop skills as a contributing member of our community; inspiring action, leading change and building relationships.

ECM Parent Testimonial:
"My daughter loves classes with Ms. Liz. Since we started in January, I have seen her grow from not being able to do anything, to getting visibly excited when Ms. Liz pulls out her ukulele, or when the eggies come out and we sing with them. Although she is only 7 months old, my daughter can shake eggies and bang on the drum rhythmically! Watching Ms. Liz and my daughter interact musically has been a delight."
Sarah M., a Baby parent
