Programme

You get to know music by hearing it and making it. Children discover instruments, use their voice and body and explore how music is constructed.

  • Listening and recognising

    Which instruments do you hear and how does a melody sound?

  • Time and rhythm

    Practising together makes it clear how music moves through time.

  • Making music yourself

    Singing and using your own body are central. Writing your own song is possible if time and the group allow.

Suitable for groups 3 to 8 (ages 6–12). The teacher adapts the lesson to the group.

Skills children practise here

  • Good listening
  • Sense of rhythm
  • Musical expression
