Join us for a free, fun, and interactive afternoon event for kids and adults! Try out instruments you’ve never even held before at the Concord Conservatory of Music’s Discovery Day Open House on Saturday, September 9th, from 1 – 3 pm.
Experience our hands-on Instrument Exploration, which allows you to play various instruments in a safe environment. We’ll guide you to determine which instrument and group class is right for you and your kids.
Develop your talent and skills with our exceptional and innovative instructors, who are trained in the best practices for today’s techniques and technologies. Not limited to beginners, students already playing an instrument will also have the opportunity to meet instructors to find the right match.
Experience free 30-minute Music & Movement, Group Keyboard, and Kid’s Ukulele classes too! For ages newborn through age 11, choose demo classes appropriate for your child’s age and interests. Sign-up in advance at the CCM website ConcordConservatory.org.
Introduce your kids to the world of music through singing, dancing, and games! CCM Early Childhood and Music & Movement group classes help kids develop social, cognitive, and emotional skills while having fun with music. Young musicians explore all the qualities of music through movement—learning about pitch, phrasing, accent, and all of the richness of music.
Group Keyboard allows students ages 5 – 7 to learn to read music and play the piano through songs, games, movement, and educational activities. The small classes of students move together as a group, covering note reading, rhythm skills, and ear training by singing with solfège.
Kid’s will have a blast learning the ukulele! They will learn chords, strumming skills, and to keep a steady beat and play rhythm. They’ll have such a fun time singing pop and folk songs with the group. Kid’s Ukulele is offered for kids ages 6 – 7 and also ages 8 – 10—have them try out a demo class at the Open House!
Stay until 3 pm when you can either join in or listen to a terrific bluegrass jam. The Concord Open Bluegrass Jam is a weekly, community driven jam session that prides itself in being an open space for local musicians and music-lovers to socially engage and create music together. The Jam is open to acoustic musicians including voice, fiddle, mandolin, guitar, banjo, dobro, bass, cello, harmonica, etc. and at all levels, as well as community members who wish to hear some great Roots music. Sign-up in advance at CCM’s website or just show up to join the jam.
