Welcome to Music Together® Sing Shalom, the unique Jewish music class for families with young children birth-5 years of age!
The weekly parent-child music classes combine everything you love about the internationally recognized Music Together® early childhood music education program with a carefully selected collection of familiar (and not-so-familiar) Jewish songs from throughout the world. Music Together Sing Shalom classes introduce Jewish themes and holidays and celebrate community through song, supporting parents and caregivers in introducing their children to a diverse, culturally rich Jewish heritage. Each week, a community of families comes together to sing, dance, and play in a class led by a trained Music Together teacher with a Jewish background. All Sing Shalom classes combine the Music Together song collections that families know and love with a carefully curated and recorded supplemental playlist of Jewish music.
No classes are currently scheduled.
Music Together Sing Shalom teachers offer parents, grandparents, and caregivers a unique window into Jewish culture. They introduce Hebrew words through song, recognize Jewish holidays, and share where and when fun things might be happening in the community. Families in a Sing Shalom class will learn lots of ways to interact musically with their children while supporting their development, strengthening family relationships, and helping them connect with Jewish tradition culturally.
In addition to your weekly classes, your tuition includes materials to use at home, a family newsletter full of resources and music-making ideas, and access to the curriculum through the Hello Everybody app. The most important part of our curriculum is actively listening to your semester's collection. Music Together's award-winning music spans nine different collections and three compilations. Songs are a mix of original and traditional tunes from various genres and styles—folk, blues, rock, jazz, classical, and world music—so there's something for everyone. These collections each include a recording and songbook and are designed to be used one collection per semester. The collections are not sequential.
