In response to your numerous requests for early childhood music classes at SAM, I set out on an adventure to find an appropriate teacher who would join our faculty. This summer I was thrilled to find Maria Isaak.
Maria is a bassoonist. She teaches general music at the elementary school in New Castle, NH. She directs a young children’s choir at the Concord Community Music School and has developed her own program called “Sound Beginnings” for the Child Learning Center at St. Paul’s School. Maria has studied the Kodaly Method of music teaching. She lives in Durham with her husband and three children.
Now we need to introduce Maria and this program to you. Many of you have inquired but not enough to begin any exact times. So, here is what we are proposing to begin next week:
***8 week session*** $148
Series of 10 classes starting the week of January 13
Free demonstrations will be offered on December 2 & 3.
Those interested should call for times.
Registration for the Winter/Spring semester begins 12/1.
9:00 – 9:35 Rockabye Babies and Treble Makers(6– 36 mo)
9:45 – 10:30 Treble Makers and Hop, Skip and Jumpers ( 3 -4 yrs)
If requested, we can also schedule a class: Tuesdays 1:00 – 1:45
To show our appreciation we will offer to all SAM students:
