Music With Children

Music With Children remains the flagship educational experience for Augustana's Community Conservatory of Music. An early childhood program for 4-8 year olds, Music with Children is an environment where children discover music in a natural way through games, songs, rhymes, movement and rhythm instruments.

Music with Children is a program based on the philosophies of Hungarian composer and educator, Zoltan Kodály, as well as the methods of Carl Orff.
