What is Music Together®?
Music Together is an internationally recognized music program founded in 1987. The music curriculum is rooted in decades of research in music education, early childhood development, and neuroscience.
The core mission of Music Together is to make the world a better place by making it more musical. We do this by providing the highest-quality music and movement classes to families everywhere, and by involving parents and caregivers. When a family starts making music together early in their child's life, their relationship to music changes, and they begin to recognize that they are indeed a musical family!
There are four principles to Music Together:
- All children are born musical.
- All children can achieve basic music competence — that is, they can learn to sing in tune and dance accurately to a beat.
- It's crucial that parents and caregivers participate in class and model music-making for their children in class and at home, regardless of their own musical ability.
- The environment that best fosters young children's musical growth is playful, musically rich, and developmentally appropriate.
How children learn
Children learn through play, from their caregivers, by observing their environment, and having all the essential engagements repeated again and again and again…and again! We also know that all children are born musical — they can learn to sing and dance just as they learn how to walk and talk.
This is why we put so much focus on providing great music, leading playful developmentally appropriate activities, and cultivating a musically rich environment where the community can come and learn music together.
