Music Together offers three distinct types of classes to enrich your childrens’ lives, no matter their ages:
For children 8 months and younger, our Babies Class is a one-semester introduction to Music Together, giving them early exposure to the benefits of music and movement. Children ages 5 to 7 will enjoy our Big Kids program, which helps children take the next step in music development by blending together elements of Music Together that children and parents love with new activities, skills, and challenges that are developmentally appropriate for this older age group. The Family Classes are mixed in ages, from birth through age 4, and allow children and parents to come together in musically fun and innovative ways. Music Together with the Childrens Chorus of San Antonio is licensed by Music Together LLC — www.musictogether.com. A typical Music Together class includes…
-Fully trained, registered Music Together teachers leading groups of six to twelve children and their parents or caregivers (nannies, babysitters, grandparents, or relatives) in forty-five minutes of music and movement experiences.
-A dozen songs and rhythmic rhymes, including fingerplays, small- and large-movement activities, and instrument play.
-Children and their adults having opportunities to create and improvise—making up new words to songs, offering movement ideas, making silly sounds, and sharing musical ideas from the family’s play at home.
-A relaxed, playful, non-performance-oriented classroom setting, which respects and supports the unique learning styles, developmental levels, and temperaments of all participants, creating a strong sense of community.
-Families receive music on both a digital app and a physical CD each semester—along with an illustrated songbook that’s filled with music-making ideas for spontaneous music play beyond the weekly classes.
