Recently, my child, Jay (age 3) and I went to a demo class for “North Coast Music Together” (NCMT), a “community of families sharing songs, instrument play, rhythm chants, and movement in a relaxed, playful and non-performance-based setting”. It is for infants through toddlers, along with active parent participation.
This is the second attempt at a formal “music appreciation” class for my musically interested kid. Our first attempt was at the HSU Music Academy.
I also know one of the instructors, I assisted Jose on some of the technical design and installation aspects of the Digital Pathways video project for youth in Humboldt County. He exudes the same boundless energy teaching 3yr olds that he does creating innovative Workforce Investment Act projects.
We start classes in the upcoming fall session.
