Welcome to Cranbrook Colourstrings, our Music Kindergarten for babies, toddlers and children up to 7 years. Here young children can enjoy inspiring musical learning led by professional musicians who are trained specialists in Colourstrings teaching. Colourstrings teaching has an outstanding international reputation and is based on the principles of the composer and teacher Zoltán Kodály.
In small, age-related groups children learn to develop their pitch, rhythm and inner hearing through games and activities using traditional folk songs and classical music. Singing, rhythm games, movement to music, playing tuned and untuned percussion instruments, listening to music, performing, composing and improvising all form part of our exciting approach to musical learning.
Our Music Kindergarten provides the foundation for the instrumental tuition programme that we offer for violin, piano and cello. This programme is open to children who have completed at least two years of Music Kindergarten training.
