Music Pups®
Designed to nurture the
musical development of young children by motivating parents and
caregivers to engage in musical activities with their child. Through
teacher modeling, play, parent education, our acclaimed CDs, and the
joy of our classes, Music Pups® provides a catalyst for parents to
create a stimulating musical environment for their child.
Sunrise
Sunrise is an exciting and innovative pre-school music program for
children three years old. Children receive
instruction in singing, rhythm, and ear training with teddy bears being
one of the learning "tools". This specially developed music curriculum
includes stories, songs and games.
Sunshine
This program, for four year old beginners, includes large
muscle experiences in beat and rhythms as well as fine motor
experiences in rhythm instrument ensemble playing. By the end of the
first year, Sunshines are playing in C major and middle C positions and
are reading from the staff. Pre-reading experiences – such as like and
different sorting, looking for patterns with colorful visual aids,
gluing and coloring -- are part of the program.
Sunbeam
This program for kindergartners and first graders provides “big kid”
lyrics to introduce concepts, finger numbers and keyboard geography.
Songs and games are used to encourage and reinforce listening.
Moonbeam
For the older beginner, ages seven through ten, the program lasts
three years. Our Moonbeams want “quick results” and the songs,
ensembles and keyboard repertoire are designed to support their growing
sense of independence. The listening activities for this age group keep
the “ears open” even as reading becomes the primary focus for gathering
information.
Students at the final level, Moonbeams Three, are thoroughly
prepared for Grade One Conservatory examinations and have, in many
cases, been awarded the Conservatory Silver Medal, the highest mark
provincially, for Grade One Piano.
Even more important, the MYC graduates (and parents) are very highly
motivated for further study in music and private teachers have found
many of the students so well prepared for private lessons that they
have accelerated them through Conservatory Grades Two and Three in one
year!
