What you will learn

Students are introduced to the music through storytelling, personal and physical experience. This is a hands on approach to music theory in which students can say, in Dalcroze’s own words, “I know, because I have experienced.”

Physical Experience

Music Theory

Through these techniques tempo, melody, rhythm patterns, phrase, and meter will be studied.

Music Moves

Through movement, students embody and develop a deeper understanding of the energy of music.

We offer Need-based financial assistance

Our goal is to make music education accessible and to remove the financial barrier that may prevent students from participating. Therefore, we offer need-based financial aid to as many students as possible.
