Let us know your child’s availability and preference for the coming semester!
Are you interested in a nurturing music class for your young child this fall? Registration for Fall Introductory Classes is now open!
Our Introductory Classes meet weekly for 45 minutes in small class sizes of approximately 4 children. Students are thoughtfully placed in classes with other children of a similar age and level, and continue with the same teacher and classmates for the full semester.
Because we individually place your child in an appropriate class, we ask that you submit an Online Inquiry Form with the full extent of your child’s availability so that we can find the best match for him or her. We generally recommend our Ready, Set, Play! class for children who are between the ages of 2.5-6 years old, but we are happy to discuss all options in our introductory program with you. Please read below for more information or check out our Introductory Class Videoto learn ore about our approach. Any questions may be directed to silvermusic@silvermusic.org.
Our RSP classes are designed to introduce the violin, viola, cello, flute, and piano along with a creative exploration of the elements of music. Students also play percussion instruments, move to music, read and write rhythms, listen, and sing. Most students take multiple semesters of RSP. Recommended for children ages 2.5-6 years old (grouped by age). Students pay by semester (rate of $45/class).
Generally students are placed in this class based on a teacher’s recommendation after completing at least one semester of RSP. This class is designed as a transition step between the learning environment of a general group music class and the more focused and directed learning involved in a private lesson. This class focuses on one instrument only. Students pay by semester (rate of $45/class).
Music Shakers is a mixed-age class for young children and their caregivers. In this class, children (8 months to 2.5 years) will combine rhythm instrument play and exploration to live music and seasonal songs, musical movement, story and active listening. These class sizes can be larger, able to accommodate up to 8 children attending with 1 parent. Students may register in advance for $20 a class, or drop-in for $25.
