Breakthrough Piano "Playing" Method now available “Finally, there is a piano methodology available that works for everybody – not just a chosen few”, says Joanne Davies, Director of East Coast Music.  Simply Music is a revolutionary Australian-developed piano and keyboard program that has beginning students — children, teens, adults and seniors —playing great-sounding pop, blues, classical, and accompaniment pieces immediately — from their very first lessons! This unique approach produces unprecedented results, and is not only becoming the new standard in entry-level music education, but is redefining music learning.

 Simply Music employs an entirely new and unique “learn-by-doing” approach that can be easily understood by students of all ages, and focuses on the sheer fun of playing — and producing immediate results.  Traditional piano lessons require students to learn how to read music as a means of learning how to play. This “read first, play later” approach is slow and frustrating, and far too many students never acquire the ability to play. Many lose their desire to learn altogether. In reality, expecting students to read music before they have learned to play is like expecting toddlers to read before they have learned to talk! After building a repertoire of 30 to 50 pieces covering a broad range of musical styles, students go on to learn how to read music, their ability to play so well providing a powerful foundation for learning the more formal aspects of music education. Unlike traditional learning, this breakthrough program is tactile, experiential, and multi-sensory, with students being physically, visually, and aurally fully absorbed.  Book your free information session now!

What is Kindermusik?

Simply put, Kindermusik is a music and movement program. Each week in class you’ll play, listen, and dance to music that will impact you and your child in profound ways. That’s because every song, story, and two-step has a carefully chosen purpose in this creative curriculum—one that’s designed to stimulate and strengthen the vital neural wiring taking place in your child’s mind, right now. A Kindermusik educator will guide you every step of the way so you know how each activity contributes to your child’s overall growth and development.

The latest research with proven methods—that’s Kindermusik, too. Our child-centered curricula incorporate ongoing, in-classroom studies with Kindermusik's own, 30-years’ experience in music and child development. Plus, we’ve combined the best music learning methods found in Orff, Kodaly, and Suzuki.

“Take-home” books, instruments and CDs from class let you take learning with you wherever you go. All while strengthening the emotional bond between you and your child.

So whether it’s twirling under a sea of scarves, experimenting with age-appropriate instruments, singing about a scampering squirrel, creating a musical ensemble, or snuggling in your lap during story time, Kindermusik speaks your child’s language and offers her (and you!) the best music and movement class available.
