the curriculum
This one day, 34 week class is designed to teach the joy of music, the creation of music, and give the students a background to understand music throughout history. Going through the development of music chronologically, students learn about the styles of music and how to recognize each era. Students also explore specific composers, and train their musical ears to recognize songs by those composers. Can you tell a Mozart from Bach? Students learn note value, and basic music theory. The course is modified to reflect the interests of the students. Note reading is not taught or required.
