Listening

Listening is the basis of all elements, and thanks to JMC lessons, the development of children’s hearing allows you to respond to any type of sound. In addition, listening to the teacher and group presentations by peers helps them develop a deeper understanding of music and stimulates further interest in learning.

• Nurturing the basic ability to notice differences in music.
• Nurturing the basic skill of feeling the rhythm and using it in a lively musical response.

Singing

When singing makes children happy, they will want to sing a song from memory. In this way, they can learn to use a variety of musical words in all the songs they have learned.

• Encourage singing at the right tempo, rhythm, pitch and rich expression.
• Supporting so that they can sing melody and harmony after listening to the musical fragment, using solmization names.

Playing

Children play songs that they previously sang with rich expression. By using the keyboard, which has wide possibilities of expression, although different from those performed vocally, you can arouse interest in instrumental music. In addition, their sense of harmony and ability to accompany are constantly developed and improved.

• Help in getting familiar with the keyboard and support in playing two hands.
• Deepening the confidence associated with the expressive playing of the known
  tracks.
• Letting children realize and experience richer music
  can be created by each of them, while playing in a band.

Reading

In the JMC program, children acquire the basics of reading notes as confirmation of what they have previously heard, sang and played. Musical notation is treated as a visual reminder of the song played.

• Practice writing musical notes and signs with the gradual introduction of longer and longer fragments.
• Help in playing and singing notes in the coming years.

Creation

Children express themselves by creating accompaniments to previously heard, sung or played songs.

• Help in discovering the great joy of creating your own music as a form of self-expression.
