Join us for a Special Holiday / Winter themed session!!!

Musicologie Junior is a musical adventure for young children and their parents, guardians, or caretakers. At each class, we’ll sing songs, move our bodies, dance to different styles of music, and play lots of musical instruments while your child reinforces their naturally developing senses of rhythm, melody, rhyme, speech, and movement! We’ll incorporate methods from Kodaly, Dalcroze, and Orff. This is a “together class” with a parent/caregiver participating.

We’re hiring!
