Music Along the Sound
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 a 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.

Making music with your child gives you the chance to be together in a special way

During the early years, it is extremely important that parents and caregivers be the ones who create a nurturing environment. Children are biologically "wired" to respond most to those with whom they have close bonds.

Music Together® classes help you build that bond. Best of all, it's fun!

Infants, toddlers, and pre-schoolers are receptive to new sounds, new tonalities, new rhythms!  And because we include such a variety of music in our classes, the children's musical vocabulary expands.

Marching and playing my finger cymbals is what I like best!
When I make music, I keep moving even if the rest of the class is sitting still!

Children model what they see..

If I really pay attention, I can do it just like the teacher!
