Music Together®

Tara Vesprini

Ages 0-4

Come Parents, Caregivers, and the children you love…let’s make Music Together!

Music Together, the internationally recognized early childhood music program, came to Chelsea Center for the Arts in 2009.  Music Together is a research-based program for babies, toddlers and preschoolers and the adults who love them. The classes are based on the recognition that all children are musical and can learn to sing in tune, keep a beat and participate with confidence in the music of our culture, provided that their early environment supports such learning.

Our instructor, Tara Vesprini, brings 12 years of music education experience and a lifetime of musical enthusiasm to CCA.

Art Song

This class is not currently being offered, please call 734 433-2787 to sign up for the next session.

Lester Castellana

Vocal song has been called a "universal art-form", practiced in almost every corner of the globe at every moment in history. In this unique class - designed especially for singers and pianists - participants will become acquainted with the rich and beautiful repertoire known as Art Song: the union of poetry and music performed, usually by a voice-paino duo (Franz Schubert's "Ave Maria" is one among many treasures). Each class will spotlight the history, composers, and poets of song as we take turns performing, listening, and discussing individual works. The role of both words and music will be examined and students will be coached on how to perform these works to the best effect.

This class is STRONGLY reccomended for singers and pianists!
* Minimum 3 years of voice or piano study required

Beginning Piano: 88 Fingers

Lester Castellana

This class will begin when we have 5 interested students. Call CCA at 734-433-2787 to be added to the list. We will start by running 2 (1 hour) sessions for $30.

Saturdays
10-11am

Finally, an opportunity to try the piano without the commitment of weekly lessons! This group-piano class teaches students - "hands on!" - how to find their way around a keyboard while they play together and for each other. Students will be introduced to the basics of fingering, rhythm and reading music while they learn to play children's songs or invent music of their own. A great way to test the musical waters!

Cost: $30
