Dalcroze Musical Arts

Starts Monday September 11, 2023

Runs for 28 Sessions ending in May 2024

Eurhythmics class for ages 4-6 years old. This introductory Dalcroze class for young children and the first in the series of Eurhythmics classes. In this class we use our imagination, play, songs, and movement to introduce the basics of music including note values, time signatures, dynamics, and more. Imagination is key in these classes as we move like bears, foxes, skunks, dragons, trees, snowflakes and more! The feeling generated through movement in class is translated into descriptions and words as we describe how the music sounded and how it made us want to move. These descriptions are named as musical terms that are the building blocks of music. Learning first through the body and movement enables long-term retention and understanding of music theory concepts. 

This class is led by the piano and a Dalcroze teacher.
