Classes for 5 and 6 year olds  =  60 min. (Level 5 and 6)

These are one year programmes

In these classes we play melodic instruments such as wooden xylophones, marimba, chime bars and non-melodic percussion instruments such as djembe drums, woodblock etc. Instruments are often played in parts, developing understanding of steady beat, rhythm, and pitch. Children begin conventional music literacy and continue the development of in-tune singing with hand signs (see separate note about ‘Sol-fa Singing’).    Improvisational opportunities are provided during instrument playing or moving.
