Music Engineering Enrichment Class 6/6
Music Engineering Enrichment Class 6/6
November 6, 2024 -
What is music? What is sound? How are musical instruments made? These are just a few of the questions we’ll explore in our Music Engineering class. Activities will engage children in both the art and science of making and playing musical instruments.
We’ll demonstrate instruments and experiment with making percussion sounds and rhythms as well as wind, string, and electronic music. Children will be encouraged to collaborate, compose, and make music together using their own inventions.
Music Engineering is open to current/alumni students as well as children who do not attend FTCNS, ages 4 to 6. Class meets Wednesdays from 3:30 to 5 p.m. at Families Together Cooperative Nursery School on October 2, October 9, October 16, October 23, October 30, and November 6, 2024.
Fee: $180 per session ($30 per class). No refunds will be issued for missed classes. (For families with a 2023 Adjusted Gross Income of less than $45,000, a limited number of 50% financial aid waivers are available).
