About

In short, we're music teachers. We get to share our love of music with children of all ages. We get to watch them discover the joy of ensemble music making and performing. And we get that giddy proud "parent" feeling as we cheer them along. Best. Job. Ever.

 Prelude Music School is dedicated to provide a joyful, music literacy program for children. Our programs are educational as well as full of joy. We strongly believe that learning music benefits other subject areas and learning, such as mathematics, language, and social skills. We also believe that the opportunity to make music in a group setting enriches the experience and teaches kids teamwork and cooperation. Children learn music like they learn language which is why we offer classes for children as young as babies. As they learn to talk, they learn to sing. As they learn to walk, they learn to dance. As they learn to read and write, they learn to notate music. Music learning becomes a natural, enjoyable process.
