What is Music Together®?

A community of families sharing songs, instrument play, rhythm chants, and movement activities in a relaxed, playful, non-performance -oriented setting.

Music learned through developmentally appropriate activities that support and respect the unique learning styles of very young children.

Six to twelve children (infants, toddlers, and preschoolers) participating at their own levels in family style classes of mixed ages.

Our teachers creating a fun, easy atmosphere and guiding parents, caregivers and children in 45 minutes of 12-14 music and movement experiences.

A new song collection every 10 week semester, each containing carefully chosen folk songs, chants and original music, all pitched in just the right range for children's developing voices. Songs in unusual meters and non-major tonalities provide a rich and varied music experience.

2 CD recordings and an accompanying beautifully illustrated songbook containing information for parents on how children learn and music activities to do at home. A parent guide for parents new to the program.



What Parents Say

The program is great. It was very helpful at times in which i needed to make my baby happy -it confirmed what I have known all along- the simplest things are the best- not even the fanciest toy or tv show can surpass the power of love and music together.
Music Together Mom

Just wanted to pass on our appreciation for the amazing Music Together experience we had with Leighanna in the fall, winter and spring semesters. She has a true talent and gift, that's for sure! As far as my husband and I are concerned, this program is an absolute bargain for what we've gotten from it. I'm sure I don't need to sing the praises and benefits of the program to you! As a stay -at -home mom/temporarily "retired" elementary teacher, this program far exceeded my expectations. Truly a wonderful experience! We look forward to starting up again in the fall.
Mom of Kelly

My son Ryan attended the winter class. I wanted you to know that he and I just loved it! I was very nervous with how Ryan would do with older children ( he started at 9 months), but Jamie and the other parents and children were wonderful with him. Jamie is wonderful! She is enthusiastic and has a special ability to pay close attention to each individual child. Ryan has grown dramatically in his response to music. He claps, smiles and dances when we turn music on-especially the Music Together music! He fusses in the car if I switch from his CD to the radio! Thank you for helping Ryan love music.

Music Together has made a difference even with my older children and neighbors at home. It has become a family activity! : ) Kaitlyn has even learned to talk sooner because of all the singing we do. It is really amazing seeing the changes in all our children. They are so happy and sing all the time.

Sadly, after almost 6 years of Music together with my two children, we will not be continuing in January. The program is fabulous, and our family has gleaned so much from the experience. Lila will miss the great teachers, especially Miss Janet.
Mom of Luke and Lila

We've had a lot of fun during the last two semesters and will return in the fall ....truly, you have a phenomenal teacher in Janet. Her musical background is obvious and in no way forced. Being in her class is a joy as she truly allows the kids to feel the music on their own terms rather than dictating how they should react to it.
Mom of Julia, Meg and Carly

I have been surprised many times when Amanda will all of the sudden start with a song or a rhythm from our class while having dinner or while driving in the car. She always asks me to "put on my music." You may not even think they heard something in class and then they repeat it perfectly, movements and all, at home. They get so much out of it- if there is only one class a family can join, this should be the one.
Whitehouse Station Mom

I just wanted to send a note saying thank you for enriching my girls lives with Music Together. You have been a part of our lives every Wednesday for 5 years now. They have learned so much from "Miss Jenny" and are still doing music at home often as we now have about two sets of every collection. We will always have wonderful memories of Music Together. Once again, Thank you so much for all your dedicated energy and time to teaching children how to enjoy music.
Mom of Katie and Allison

My teacher, in a word, is excellent. She is an expert at picking up on the energy and creativity of the children in the class and building off of it. We love to come to Music Together classes! What a joy it is to see the love of music develop and flourish in my daughter!
Mom of Erin

My son is only 17 months old; he likes to watch in class and then does a lot of the dancing and motions at home. I love that he is being exposed to different instruments and how the older children express themselves. He loves Miss Jamie and often follows her around like a puppy dog! The class has given us a new activity to do at home together- I'm very happy that we signed up!
Music Together Mom

I've enjoyed watching my 8 month old learn to love music. Now she rocks back and forth, claps and sings to all music. My daughter loved being able to strum the guitar at the end of class.
Music Together Mom

Excellent! Creative, fun for all. Jenny is a natural with the kids and is definitely "in tune" with everybody. Robby and Grace love the classes.
