Music Class
Piano Lessons For kids
and More!
At Children's Music Academy of Springfield, Children will experience the wonder of music in a fun-filled, hands-on environment. Making music is so fulfilling in our group music classes for children ages 3 to 9 years old and it is also so very positive and affirming. We have seen first hand, over and over how our interactive approach to music education creates a lifelong love of music for children.
OUR Music Classes for kids
All of our music classes are designed for beginner musicians. But they don’t stay "beginners" for long. At CMA a child will learn: Piano/Keyboard Playing, Singing, Music Theory, Harmony, Rhythm, Note Reading, Ear Training, Composition, Ensemble Playing, Recorder, Guitar and more! Your child will be placed in the music class that corresponds with the age they begin Children's Music Academy.
Watch the video on this page to learn more about our class offerings and take a look at the class descriptions below. Contact us if you would like to come to one of our classes for Free!
Classes meet for one hour, once per week and are offered at a variety of times: mornings, early afternoons, late afternoons, and evenings. CMA enrolls new students each Fall and Spring and our semesters follow the local school calendar (seasonal breaks and national holidays are observed).
The fun and supportive environment naturally draws children into the learning activities. Activities are fast-paced; incorporate games, songs, dances, and ensemble playing; and involve a variety of musical instruments. Parents actively participate with their child.
My daughter, Molly, recently graduated from the CMA program, and I can honestly say it was one of the most valuable investments that we have ever made. She was given excellent instruction in piano, music theory and ear training, and most importantly, a love for music! A wonderful bonus is that because it is parent/child, I too “re-learned” how to play piano
