Learning about music and having the opportunity to play musical instruments while making music together is a vital part of a rich and rounded education for one’s self. Music education for young children promotes specific methods of training, and Music&Movement has an intuitive approach for the young children that naturally like to sing, move, and explore sounds…

It has been proven that music plays a key role in brain development. Learning music entices many kids
to learn more about the world around them while thinking creatively and learning fun skills. Just as
music education is important for fostering cognitive skills, it can also play a significant role in creating
healthy social environments and personal habits.

Children from young ages can visit and be part of our “Musical Spring” where they will be able to
experience several elements of music such as rhythm and melody and the expression in music through
keyboard activities, exploring string instruments, Orff percussions, ear training, theory, singing, history,
composing and most importantly making learning FUN. We are pretty sure many of you have had the
opportunity to see your child play by rhythm, dance, sing in your home and when you combine the same
with proper structured educational program in a more focused disciplined and socialized environment
the outcome is always amazing and fun.

We kindly encourage all parents and caregivers to take the advantage of music while building the unity
with their child! Have this in mind when raising our future generations: structured musical activities
help with the nurturing of language, motor skills, emotional intelligence and collaboration skills.

Keep your kids active and stimulated!

We at “Pianoforte” music school want all children to have these opportunities so we have carefully
created, planned and sequenced a way of delivering the curriculum for all stages of one’s musical
education. Pupils at all ages and levels in “Pianoforte” are supported in their musical progression from
the very beginning of their musical journey.

It is our goal to create a happy habit of learning music through an activity-based, game-filled program
offering something for everyone.

We are so happy and honored to be part of this unique and exquisite educational experience.

The Early Advantage

Why a musical instrument at the earliest age of children?

Marina Chado- Founder, violin professor, manager of the String Instrument Department and executive director of the school

There are numerous researches in the world about the role of music in the development of the youngest, which indicates exceptional results in children.

Playing an instrument directly affects the development of motor skills and concentration. Very often we meet children who have a hard time handling precise finger movements up to the age of 8. Playing an instrument is preceded by numerous games for awakening fine motor skills. Then those exercises continue on the instrument in an attempt to master the appropriate skills by creating cultivated sounds. Concentration is one of the most common elements that we should pay a lot of attention to. We have witnessed how our youngest spend their free time. My experience shows that today’s children can hardly keep their attention on one activity for a long time. Through playing an instrument we create an exceptional habit of building and developing concentration for the process.

We trace the path to success

In the process of overcoming difficulties, challenges and barriers in life lies the feeling of happiness and success. That perseverance and tenacity to overcome a certain difficulty is learned from an early age and is very visible in learning to play the piano or any other instrument.

As a long-time piano teacher, I face the challenge of showing a child that there is nothing that cannot be mastered with enough effort and perseverance. Usually, at the first barrier in playing, most of the children say “I can’t”. The greatness of a good teacher is to find a way to show the child that he/she CAN – every time and without exception with a little more effort and persistence. The greatest gift for me is when I see a big smile on the child’s face at the moment when the child realizes that he/she can solve something that was difficult and problematic until a little while ago and master it. And that’s how every child who plays an instrument learns every day about life, and gradually we pave the way to success. That’s why parents, help them overcome, and become a stronger person, persevere and thus he/she will have the opportunity to become a successful and satisfied person.

The team of teachers at “Pianoforte” music school is composed of top pedagogues who are maximally committed to the students' progress. Modern pedagogical programs are followed, through which the teachers get the most out of each child. Our daughter is 10 years old and has already won several awards at renowned international competitions. Although she is already playing more serious compositions at her age, her school lessons are not an obligation but a pure pleasure. Therefore, we give a warm recommendation for the music school “Pianoforte”.
