ALL CHILDREN ARE MUSICAL!  At Music Together we emphasize actual musical experiences rather than concepts about music; we introduce children to the pleasures of making music instead of passively receiving it from CD’s or television.  Because young children instinctively respond to and imitate their loved ones, the active participation of parents and caregivers - regardless of their musical ability - is an essential part of the rich musical environment we create.  COME MAKE MUSIC WITH US!

 

Class tuition:  $130 for one child, $80 for additional siblings -infants under 8 months are free with a registered sibling.  Tuition includes classes, songbook, CD, tape and parent guide for new Music Together families.  We also have gift certificates available - makes a great gift from Grandparents!

The Spring session is underway but there are spaces still available.  Please contact the Recreation Office or Jane Roets to register now. To be on our mailing list and receive information on demo classes and early registration, please call 324-8126 or e-mail Jane at jroets@snet.net. You can also check out our new website at <www.tcmusictogether.com>

TCMT GIFT CERTIFICATES NOW AVAILABLE!
