Early Childhood Music

Prezuki with Hannah Cayem

“Prezuki” is an early childhood music class that gives families a glimpse into the Suzuki Method: early start, parental involvement, group experiences, mastery through repetition, positive reinforcement, experience with instruments, introduction to Suzuki repertoire.

Prezuki is designed for young musicians ages 18 months – turning 4 years old after December 31, 2025. Class repertoire changes each semester and continuing students can improve skills and deepen their understanding of the concepts learned.

Activities include playing rhythm instruments, drumming, singing, pitch-matching, learning about high/low, fast/slow, soft/loud, listening and moving to a variety of music, and playing games to introduce how to hold instruments and bows.  This fun class lays a foundation for lessons in the Suzuki Method, but can be enjoyed just for the love of music.

Tuition: $100 per Prezuki semester. Tuition must be paid to complete registration before attending classes.
