Motivation is the key

This sense of community and collaborative learning is something I deeply missed during my formative years of musical education. Playing music in a group not only enhances musical skills but also significantly boosts motivation.

The shared experience of making music together fosters a sense of belonging and purpose, encouraging children to practice more consistently and passionately.

Seeing their peers progress and contribute to the ensemble inspires them to improve, creating a positive and supportive environment that fuels their dedication to learning.

That’s why I’m passionately committed to ensuring that young musicians today have the opportunity to experience the joy and benefits of playing in a group from an early age.

Small groups, big musical experiences

At Music Tree, our Crescendo Ensemble Program is designed specifically for this purpose. We want to give our students, aged 9 and up, the chance to engage in multi-instrumental groups and experience the magic of ensemble play. In our program, groups are kept small, with a maximum of four children, to ensure each student receives the attention and guidance they need.

In these close-knit groups, students will not only practice their musical skills regularly but also learn how to compose their own pieces. They will use their creativity and problem-solving skills to improvise and collaborate, developing a deeper understanding of music and building strong, supportive relationships with their peers.
