Little Opera is a comprehensive nine-month after-school program that challenges the assumption that opera is not for everyone. We bring together elementary aged students in grades 1-6 and professional Bay Area artists to create, rehearse, and perform an original opera.
For intermediate to advanced students, this course is an opportunity for musicians to experience a practical approach to the fundamentals of orchestration, notation and musical analysis. Students interact in an open atmosphere of exploration to create new musical works. Acceptance into the course is based on the submission of one original composition by the student.
A Joyful Sound! is our summer mixed chorus, open to all who love to sing. Families are encouraged to participate with their children. Singers receive training in voice, musicianship, and performance from master conductor, Jan Pedersen Schiff. There are no audition requirements. This is a 10 week session. We understand you may miss a few rehearsals due to summer travel plans. A rehearsal CD of your voice part is provided to assist you with learning the music outside of the rehearsal time. There is a supervised play area for the children to retire to at 8:00 p.m.
Group lessons include: Intro to music for young children, group piano, music theory, and chamber orchestra.
