Cancer stinks and Music Together^® really cleanses us! It's a beautiful thing.

We absolutely love Music Together! My husband is deployed right now to Afghanistan for 6 months, he left a month ago and he loves to watch the boys move and dance to the music when we are able to Skype. One of our children also sang him the "can you do this song". We do a "performance" for him with the "get your instruments" and play along song. It's fun to see the kids so into music. Our youngest child's favorite song is the PPI song (Mississippi Cat).

Thank you, thank you, thank you for bringing music into our lives! Benjamin (now 4 1/2) is just bursting into song even more than ever. One of my favorite things is how he feels completely free to change the lyrics and compose his own songs. ("Ding dong,I've got the rhythm in my tushie" brings down the house around here!).

This was my first Music Together class in this country.
Now I'm quite sure that Music Together provides excellent classes all over
the world.

"When [our son] was 8 or 9 months old, he had attended the Mixed age class and until this day (he is 2 years old now) when we put the Music Together CD, in the car or at home, he is transformed! It not only has left a lasting positive impression but has helped him developmentally a great deal. He express himself a lot better/more than other kids his age..."

We just MUST have Music Together classes be part of our son's week! He looooves the class, as do I. It has been the most positive experience for both of my kids and myself over the past year.

In class you always talk about "audiation". It is amazing to see Libby really hearing music in her head and picking songs depending on a beat she hears around her. "Hello Everybody" is the only thing allowed in the car CD player at this point (or "Hedo Edybody").

My daughter (18 months) now says a word for music ("may-may") and requests it A LOT. We listen to all kinds of things but she is always most excited about the Sticks CD -- she starts marching and dancing as soon as she hears the first notes of the hello song.

I caught my husband singing for the first time in our lives together after taking Music Together Montgomery classes!

" You really run an exceptional program and we consider ourselves very lucky to have been able to take all of these classes."

My daughter has tuned in to the art of humming and singing to herself
and I credit it to the class. We listen to music more now that we have been
taking the class and as a result she's picked up these new "abilities".

I am actually amazed that at her young age Daisy can already 'request'
most of the songs on the CD and can even sing along to many of them. It's
wonderful!

Our daughter gets a very happy face when she hears the Music Together CD come on at home!

It is exciting to watch Joshua and Naomi listen so much more carefully to
music than they have in the past . . .

I love to see all the kids participating at each level - dancing, singing, interacting with the instruments.
I would like to say how wonderful it is to see Ali singing the songs she learned in class outside of class! Keep up the awesome classes!

[Our son is] only 2 years old! . . . And he has participated more and more each time. It has been great! We started when he could just barely sit up and now he walks, talks, dances and sings!

I remain amazed and thrilled by my son's growing love of music. He demands that I play one of his CDs as soon as we get in the car, and I love hearing him "singing" from the back seat. There have been countless moments when I've laughed out loud, hearing him progress from simple "ba ba ba" sounds to the more sophisticated "umm umm umm", "oh oh oh" and -- two days ago -- "nigh nigh nigh". I also realized the other day that whenever he hears the CD say "Get your instrument and play along", he immediately begins pounding on the on the arms of his carseat. He may not have an "official" instrument handy, but he makes do!!

[Our MTM instructor] came up with all kinds of creative ways to make the class interactive and interesting from encouraging the kids to make up melody extension of the music, to various ways of dancing around the room. The class was really excellent and really fun.

“Mummy I can play this music without having it on the CD, just by humming it”

We first brought our twins to Music Together (in Brooklyn,
NYC) when they were 12 weeks old. What a wonderful journey it's been
from mesmerized, immobile, smiling infants to wild, wooly, musical
toddlers. We've watched them experience music at each stage their
development, and it is so cool now to hear them spontaneously start
singing the hello song to their toy trains or to start playing the
toy piano in rhythm with their dad's guitar playing. It is a really
terrific program.

...when my daughter is throwing a temper tantrum and nothing else will get her to re-focus, I use the "bah, baaah" in the same tone and it calms her down and helps her re-focus...it's great. The moment we get in the car, she points to the radio until I turn on the MT CD, she sings and mimics back the sounds on the CD, she loves playing her instruments now and is using other random objects as instruments... It's been amazing to see her grow in such a short time. Great class! Thanks!

Although she is very shy in class, Liv at 20 months, reguarly breaks into song at home and knows "the words" to most of the songs we sing. For a long time, I could only coax her to sleep by singing the Hello song.

[Our MTM teacher] helped us set [our son] on a musical course that I
hope he continues for many years to come. Thanks for everything. C.R

All three of my grown children now know these songs by heart and
spontaneously start singing them at family get togethers. Then we laugh
a lot. A.D.

My 8 1/2 year old third grader returned from school, excitedly exiting the bus. She retold the tale of how she was quietly singing to herself (an extremely common occurrence, as she sings all the time) "No More Pie", when the friend sitting next to her began to sing the replies. Then, these two cool 'tweens' burst into a full-spirited rendition of the song in its entirety. It turns out her friend also has a younger sibling enrolled in a different Music Together class this session. It is a testament to your musical selections that these two older siblings would both be willing to listen to and find enjoyment in the class CD--------and not declare it "baby music". Our entire family reaped benefits from Music Together and we thank you!

I must tell you that Jack has an absolutely wonderful time in Music Together! He truly enjoys the class, and so do I. As a woman who really can't carry a tune, I was a little nervous, but our instructor creates an open and accepting environment where Jack and I both feel totally comfortable.

As soon as we got home [from Music Together class today. My daughter] ran to the stereo and was pointing and waving her hands for me to put the music on. She started dancing right away and sat right down when the "Riding in the car" song came on and did almost all the actions, it was so GREAT! She wanted more Music Together!

Before we moved back to Montgomery County, my child was in a mixed-age preschool for two years, and she learned so many wonderful things from the varied experience as a little one, and as a "big one." I think it has helped shape who she's becoming. Now she's the oldest in our MT class, and I think it works beautifully. Thank you!
