Flying Notes Children's Choir

This Fall 2019, The Flying Note’s Children’s choir will embark on a musical journey down the Nile, entering the world of the pharaohs and making our final stop in modern day Egypt where pop-singers reign. Students will become familiar with the various elements that distinguish Arabic Music, including variation in tone, scale, and vocal quality and how it differs from western classical music notation. Jump on board and join us for our trip down the Nile!

INTRO TO ARABIC MUSIC FOR ADULTS

This course is designed to ignite and nurture a passion for Arabic music in our adult students. Students will learn the elements that distinguish Arabic music from Western classical music. Through exposure to the Arabic tonal system, the rhythmic structure, and the vocal and instrumental tone qualities and techniques, students will build the vocabulary and tools needed to start their own Arabic musical skill exploration. Come join us for a course specifically designed for all our adults interested in Arabic music and start tapping into the musician within. Who knows you may be the next Fayrouz, Um Kalthoum, Abdel Wahab or even Abdel Halim.

INTRODUCTION TO MUSIC FOR EARLY CHILDHOOD

This early childhood education course is designed to ignite passion and excitement for music in our smallest musicians. Embark on an imaginary journey where our students will utilize singing, movement, drawing, and hands-on work with instruments, to tell their unique stories through music and learn the FUN-damentals of music. Students will develop a familiarity with various instruments and musical styles to inspire an anticipation for their chosen private instrument for study and learn cooperation with peers in a group music setting to provide the foundation for ensemble musical expression and spark a lifelong interest in music.
