There are 4 levels
Music for Little
Mozarts is a 2 year program. The time required for
completion of each of the four levels varies from student to
student.
On average each level can be completed in 18 to 22
weeks. The course centres around Beethoven Bear and Mozart
Mouse as they learn about music. Course materials at each of
the 4 levels include a Music Lesson Book, Work Book,
Discovery Book, and Compact Disc.
40 minute
lesson each week
Music for Little Mozarts combines general musicianship
activities with those that develop performance skills at the
piano. Skills taught in the course focus on keyboard
technique, singing, rhythm, movement and music appreciation.
Children will play pieces at the piano throughout each
level. The course works equally well in private or group
lessons.
