Music

The music program in the early years concentrates on singing, vocal production, pitch perception, and reading music. Orff instruments are used to develop rhythm, meter, and ensemble playing. Fourth graders learn to play the recorder.

Boys in the fifth and sixth grades receive group instruction in violin, viola, or cello. Seventh- and eighth-grade boys choose from the following offerings: chorus, orchestra, music technology, and Afro-Latino drumming. At all grade levels, performance opportunities are part of the program and individual music study is encouraged.

In the Upper School, students may take theory and composition courses and participate in a variety of choruses and ensembles.
