Early Start Music

Early Start Music's mission is to serve the families of the East Bay area through music, play and community building. We want you to join Early Start Music and feel a part of our community of music makers. We strive to create a musically rich and developmentally appropriate musical environment. Because Music Together's curriculum encompasses a total of nine song collections, which can be taken over a three year period without ever repeating a song, we hope to continually inspire you with new beats and tunes.

The Rationale for Mixed-Age Classes

Music Together was the first early childhood music program to offer music classes for mixed ages. Child development researchers have known for a long time that the natural, family-style environment of mixed-age classes is the best way for young children to learn. In our experience, it works! In Mixed-Age classes, the older children love to show what they know, and the younger ones love to watch and imitate. The relaxed, no-pressure environment lets all kids learn at their own pace.
