Musical Explorers: My City, My Song (Grades K-2)

"How can Music Represent the Spirit of a Community?" Children become Musical Explorers, meeting professional musicians and learning songs from different cultures as they reflect on their own communities and develop listening, singing, and composing skills.

Musical Explorers includes four year-long curricula that classroom teachers and music teachers can use in any order. Lessons are aligned with the National Music Standards and New York City Blueprint Strands for music education.

Each semester ends with an interactive concert at Carnegie Hall. Sign up here.
