Big Changes Ahead for Winter!
We're moving back INDOORS! For 19 years prior to the pandemic, our classes were always held indoors. Many of our current families have not yet experienced Music Together held in a studio instead of a park- it's been a long time!
We are SO excited to go back indoors this winter- let the cold wind and rain come! We will have classes in two beautiful locations. In Santa Rosa, we will be at Breakthrough Dance on Mendocino Ave, and in Healdsburg we'll return to the Community Center classroom! Click here for more on our locations.

The Music Together curriculum is one of the best-structured and most effective early childhood music educations out there.
Without knowing how, parents and children absorb fundamental concepts of musical structure while gaining a common repertory to make music with each other in the home. We learn by watching and doing, playing and exploring.
The Zoom classes are as effective and enjoyable as the in-person classes we were used to. They are fun, dynamic, and have given us a great sense of community through this time.
I recommend any parent of a young child get involved.

“Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.”
~Fred Rogers
...and this precious toddler is doing some serious musical concentration- while playing! That's how we teach in our classes. Adults create the musical play, and the children soak it up in their own way. This is from one of our Santa Rosa Outdoor classes.
