Music Together
is a music and movement
approach to early childhood music development for infant, toddler,
preschool, and kindergarten children and their parents, teachers,
and other primary caregivers. Originally offered to the public in
1987, it pioneered the concept of a research-based, developmentally
appropriate early childhood music curriculum that strongly
emphasizes and facilitates adult involvement. The Music Together
approach develops every child's birthright of basic music competence
by encouraging the actual experiencing of music rather than the
learning of concepts or information about music. It began as an
educational project of the Center for Music and Young Children and
is now being taught internationally. Music Together CD's, songbooks,
and classroom techniques enjoy widespread use by teachers and
families both directly and indirectly involved in Music Together.
