• Personalized Learning Path: A well-matched class ensures that your child builds confidence and progresses naturally, without feeling overwhelmed or under-stimulated.
• Stronger Foundations for Success: Starting in the appropriate class lays a solid foundation for musical growth, setting the stage for greater achievements in the future.
Senior
Age: 10-13 year olds
From start to graduation: 1-1.5 years plus a final “Graduation Year” ending with the “Masters Year”
A beginner course designed especially for 9-13 years olds. Children will learn the acclaimed CMA curriculum, however, the program is expedited due the age a child begins the Senior Course. Parents participate and experience the joy of watching their child embrace new musical knowledge. Children graduating the Senior Course will also end with the same inspirational and rewarding graduation ceremony as the Junior Course. Students then continue on to fully explore their musical ability in the “Masters Year.”
