Piano Year 1 (Minimum 6.5+)
This is a 26-week course, from mid September-end of April.
Registration Opens June 25th
This level extends our pathway to music literacy and skills by learning to play the piano. Musikgarten Music Makers: At the Piano program teaches the children to play the songs they've been hearing, singing, moving to, and enjoying in earlier years.
Progressing on from our level of Around the World, this sixty-minute class follows a sequential, broad-based approach to building piano skills, including the ability to improvise, transpose, compose, play by ear, and to understand musical notation. Parents participate in the final fifteen minutes of class, but are also encouraged to attend the entire class as much as possible. Success in this remarkable program depends upon the support of an adult committed to working with the child during the first year.
The minimum age of 6.5 years for children enrolled in this group class is incredibly important. This age is to ensure the material presented in class is developmentally appropriate for your child, and is imperative in order for your child to feel successful and confident in learning their new instrument.
