Music Classes

Music Together (R)

Newborn – Age 6

Songs, Dance, Rhymes, Instrument Play.  Music Together classes are so much FUN you might not even realize how much children and parents are LEARNING!

Rhythm Kids Level 1

Ages 4-7 years

Music Together Rhythm Kids Level 1 classes are for “big kids” with parents & caregivers who stay and participate actively in the class. Singing, Djembe Drumming, Large Movement Rhythmic Games, and more. The kids really start to take the LEAD and do a lot more of their own singing and verse writing in Rhythm Kids Level 1, but parents are still there to support learning and participation and have fun together.

Rhythm KidsLevel 2

Ages 5-10

Parents drop off for Level 2 Classes, and kids really step into creative leadership! Singing (solo, unison, and in harmony!), Djembe Drumming, Large Movement Rhythmic Games, improvisation, verse creation, choreography, and even solfege training using patterns and flash card games. FUN approach to more advanced musical concepts!

Youth In Harmony A Cappella Choir

Ages 8-18

This is our elite performing choir. Audtition required to participate. This group has performed all over Brevard County, including, but not limited to, Halloween shows, Forida History Programs, Renaissance Festivals, Holiday Caroling, nursing homes, churches, fundrasers, and recording projects.

Private Voice/Piano Instruction

All ages

Vocal Instruction for teens and adults by appintment. Beginning to Intermediate Piano Instruction for ages 5 and up.

Note: Students under 8 years of age will generally not be accepted for private study without at least one semester (preferably at least one full year) of Music Together Rhythm Kids Level 2 Classes. In our experience, this prerequisite serves to prepare young musicians for a MUCH more successful experience in private study. (Plus it saves the parents a lot of money!)
