Music Workshops
For class teachers, music teachers, parents, and lovers of music
Workshop Content
Every workshop starts from the same questions: What music does a child actually need? How do you choose the right piece for the right grade? How do you spark real motivation to make music? Together we find answers that work for your school.
Classic Topics We Could Cover
- An age-appropriate music curriculum for Grades 1 to 8, with guidance for High School
- Carefully chosen songs and games, from Medieval to Classical, from folk to multicultural
- Creative use of Orff instruments, recorders and newly designed instruments
- Rhythm work with body percussion, shakers, drums, woodblocks and boomwhackers
- Performance pieces in many styles, including African drumming and Brazilian Samba
Designed for Every Grade
Kindergarten + Grades 1–2
Lyres, pentatonic flutes, creative music games, movement, and age-appropriate songs that breathe with the child's world. Music is experienced through play, imagination, stories, and seasonal celebrations.
Grades 3–5
Music follows the developmental needs of each grade and connects closely with the curriculum. Grade 3 introduces work songs, call-and-response songs, and the first rounds, together with rhythm games and body percussion. As students progress through Grades 4 and 5, songs become more complex, while rhythm, movement, ensemble playing, and performance skills continue to develop.
Grades 6–9
The transition from games to artistry. Students encounter increasingly challenging repertoire and develop a stronger sense of musical expression, ensemble playing, and performance. Choir, guitar, jazz-influenced songs, African drumming, Brazilian Samba, and Boomwhackers offer different ways into music and help engage even students who may initially be reluctant to participate.
