Polyphony Chamber Orchestra
PCO was founded in 1998 by Stanley Lee and Anne Lee. The mission of PCO is to provide an after school music education for students of all ages.

San Francisco Conservatory of Music, Preparatory Division Dalcroze-Eurhythmics (Level I-IV, Advanced)
Eurhythmics utilizes the natural desire for movement all children possess. Students are furnished with not just an understanding of music and knowledge of its written language, but a thorough sense and feeling for it. Among other benefits, the study of music through movement cultivates inner hearing and gives children a holistic understanding of musical elements such as pulse, meter, rhythm pattern, phrasing and form. This grounding in the basic language of music leads to a distinct advantage when learning a musical instrument.
