Kids at the Con - Yellow Class

Description

The Yellow class is designed for children aged 5-6 years old. In this class, children continue to experience beat, pitch, tempo, dynamics, and structure through playing, singing, and moving. Simple notation is introduced, and rhythmic and aural elements become more complex. Ensemble work is explored in more detail, and working with different parts in both singing and on instruments contributes to a wider understanding of how music comes together.

Testimonials

Kids at the Con parents have praised the program, with one parent stating that it has helped improve their child's confidence and memory, and that playing music has made their child feel happy and have great fun while learning.
