Sunbeams is the program designed for 5 & 6 yr olds with their parents actively participating. Your child will be educated in piano playing, singing, listening skills, rhythm instruments, and especially music reading and writing. Each class is an exciting hour that includes many activities. Most of our activities are hands-on, using instruments, puppets, games, magnets, rhythm writing tools and more.

The successful Sunbeams 1 student is engaged in class and practices regularly at home. Several new concepts are introduced weekly and the complexity of piano playing increases continually.  By the end of the year, they are playing scales hands together and have learned how to harmonize through bridges (the beginning of chords).  I will be offering a new Sunbeams class beginning September 2017.

Each year, at the time of registration, parents pay a Materials Fee.  This amount is sent to MYC Head office and pays for your materials for the year.  For first time students, the materials fee includes the MYC books for your level, a tin sheet with magnets, a castanet, a technique toolbox, and an MYC bag to carry all your music items to and from class!
