These are in-person music classes, held at the VSO School
Beginners Class | Thursdays, 3:30-4:30pm | Complete beginners – no experience required! |
Continuing Class | Thursdays, 4:30-5:30pm | For children who have completed one term of Meet the Piano or have equivalent experience. |
Help your child begin a lifelong friendship with the piano while building a foundation of musicianship skills. Children develop the skills of music note-reading, piano performance, listening (ear-training), pitch matching, piano keyboard technique, singing, movement, rhythm, and music appreciation in this introductory class for piano.
The class is based on the “Alfred Piano Course” curriculum, specifically designed to teach young beginners using a combination of piano, singing, stories, and fun activities to learn piano. It balances the discipline of learning an instrument and the fun of making music with others.
Participants will need the following:
- Lesson Book, Alfred’s Primer Piano Course Lesson 1 A*
- Theory Book, Alfred’s Primer Piano Course Theory 1 A*
- A piano or keyboard to practice at home
*Books are required for the start of the term
