Using Dalcroze School of the Rockies Curriculum designed by Dr. Jeremy Dittus, we explore theory and musicality using Dalcroze techniques which include playful movement imagination and creativity. This five year curriculum series is a comprehensive music education covering many keys, times, rhythms, syncopation, aural skills, nuance, and expression elements.

Powerful, Engaging, and Dynamic Music Learning!

For older children ages 6-14, The Dalcroze School of the Rockies Rhythmic-Solfège classes build skills and deepen their love of music.
Dalcroze's approach to music pedagogy is the only modern method that originated in the conservatory with adult pre-professional musicians. The method works best when it is applied in tandem with an applied instrument so that students can see how the skills they are learning in the Dalcroze classroom function in real life at the instrument.
Benefits of this education include improved intonation, finer listening capability, better ensemble skills, energetic rhythmic and metric vitality, and a deepened understanding of musical analysis, nuance, and aesthetics as they relate to performance.
The complete progression of five levels will provide students with a solid and comprehensive music education, and students who complete the entire sequence will have the same competency of any college-level freshman conservatory student.

This class has an at-home practice requirement of 10 minutes per day/ 5 days a week to enhance learning.
