The Four Principles of Music Together

1. All children are born musical.

2. All children can achieve basic music competence—that is, they can learn to sing in tune and dance accurately to a beat.

3. It's crucial that parents and caregivers participate in class and model music-making for their children in class and at home, regardless of their own musical ability.

4. The environment that best fosters young children's musical growth is playful, musically rich, and developmentally appropriate.
