 Summer Music Camps 2009 MoMO (Music on My Own) Summer Camp
MoMO is designed to provide a thorough and developmentally appropriate musical experience for the budding musician. Children will have the opportunity to sing and dance, play basic percussion instruments, hear operatic & other classical selections, folk dance, and learn about composers. The focus for this class is to nurture basic musical abilities and foster a genuine love for music making. It is our hope that these students will learn to sing and move expressively, learn how to keep a steady beat and learn to sing in tune. Most importantly, we hope they learn that they, too, can make their own music! Students should bring a lunch. Snack provided. Half day camp for 5-7 year olds
