Welcome!
currently enrolling for FALL Semester 
(Sept 13- Dec 16) 

"My most sincere encouragement to parents is to make music freely with your child... to lose yourself in the world of childhood, to delight in the play that your young child is showing you, and to experience your child's wonder and enjoyment of the musical world."--Lorna Heyge, Ph.D. Musikgarten Founder

I am pleased and excited that you are considering music classes for your child. The Musikgarten program is based on a keen understanding of how children learn, in both a general sense and, specifically, how they learn music. From newborns through age 9, Musikgarten provides fun, educational, developmentally appropriate activities to nurture a child’s music aptitude and lay the foundation for music literacy.  Children and their families are engaged in singing,  purposeful movement, and focused listening activities which help attune the ear, refine the voice, develop a rhythmic body through which music can be expressed.

This Fall, I am pleased to be adding new classes for 4 1/2 - 6 year olds as well as a new, evening PJ class for toddlers.  The full schedule may be viewed by clicking in the "Class Schedule" link on the left of the page.  As you familiarize yourself with the class offerings and learn more about Musikgarten, I look forward to answering your questions and welcoming your family.

Happily,
Maria Bolchert (licensed, certified Musikgarten teacher)
