Welcome to Early Childhood Music at Trinity

We believe that music and movement experiences have a significant impact on the development of the whole child.  Through music, a child builds listening skills, concentration, dexterity, and memory.  Research continues to support the premise that music improves a child’s overall learning and self-esteem.  We are dedicated to providing a rich, integrated musical environment which will establish a climate for learning and will give families something meaningful to share and cherish.

At our studio, Early Childhood Music at Trinity, you’ll have a great time seeing your child’s coordination and social skills develop through activities like:
Singing * Creative Movement * Playing Instruments * Musical Games * And More!

Our goals are:

• To promote music education in our community.
• To generate enthusiasm for music through positive experiences and excellent teaching.
• To provide activities and experiences for children at their developmental level of readiness.
• To create a nurturing environment that enables children to develop physically, intellectually, emotionally, socially, and spiritually.
• To affirm and support parents of young children while facilitating positive family interaction.

Why Musikgarten?
Early Childhood Music at Trinity offers all levels of Musikgarten classes.  We selected Musikgarten because it is the preeminent early childhood music education company.  Musikgarten offers an outstanding educational program designed to nurture the innate musical ability that is present in each of us.  The curricula, developed by Dr. Lorna Lutz Heyge and Audrey Sillick, draws on the research and child development theories of Edward Gordon, Maria Montessori, and Albert Tomatis as well as the music development philosophies of Dalcroze, Kodaly, Laban, and Orff.

All of our teachers have been certified through Musikgarten.  The early childhood music professionals who teach these workshops are authorities on children and early childhood music education.  The intensive training combines many hours of lecture with hands-on activities, so it is a real-life experience, not a videotape or online degree.  Because of the quality of the training, parents and children recognize the high quality of Musikgarten classes.

As an organization, Musikgarten also provides unparalleled support for their teachers.  They specialize in teacher training, providing extensive in-person training sessions that provide teachers with the latest techniques in early childhood music education.  Beyond the teacher certification program, these experts continue to support Musikgarten teachers with e-mail and on-line activities, consultation, and continuing education.

Early Childhood Music at Trinity is licenses as an independent Musikgarten studio.  There are hundreds of Musikgarten studios in North America.  The Musikgarten curriculum has also been adapted and is used extensively in several foreign countries, including: Germany, Malaysia, Korea, and China.  As an organization, Musikgarten supports making music education available for children everywhere.
