Taylor Swift, who plays the guitar, piano, ukulele and banjo, is a great role model for young kids these days to explore their own musical talents, while discovering the joy and fulfilment that comes with mastering an instrument at a young age. Wouldn’t it be wonderful though, if kids can learn both the fundamentals of singing or playing an instrument while also learning to play music they are passionate about?
Get to know Ann Perreau’s Music School – where music education doesn’t just centre on the right notes and music exams, but on passion and creativity!
Let’s Learn in a Group!
With 25 years of experience, what sets this music school apart is not only the individual lessons but its highly beneficial group lessons. The teachers here work hard to prepare and craft group lessons that blend the interesting and relevant, while not forgetting the rigours of the exam curriculum too. Students who attend over a long stretch especially, end up making fast friends among their peers through playing music together.
Individualised Needs with Holistic Growth
All students have distinct needs and feelings in respect of whichever instrument they choose to play. The qualified teachers here, many of whom can play up to 3 or 4 instruments, appreciate that not all students necessarily want to learn music in the conventional, theory and practical approach. One example of Ann Perreau’s student-centric approach is encouraging students to discuss what music they love (think contemporary or pop) and ‘tailoring’ their lessons to include this aspect.
Ensemble Skills
It’s not just about the learning here; it’s about the showcasing and performing too! Students at Ann Perreau’s can look forward to orchestra training, in-house concerts, the Let’s Play Together programme, where students have performed in local events and competitions, ensemble performances and annual concerts that are arranged, designed and curated to allow for students of all ages and levels to perform all types of music – including electronic and computer-generated music!
“My daughter joined Ann Perreau’s when she was just 4 years of age. The children not only learn how to play and use their instruments creatively, but have opportunities to perform at annual concerts and even regular in-house concerts…Music exams are not insisted upon but rather, it is done at each child’s pace, so no unnecessary pressures on them. “ Anna Bala, parent of Dhanya, Vocal Grade 6, Completed Piano Grade 8
Sending kids to a music school to learn instruments or vocals isn’t just about hitting the right notes; it’s about nurturing a passion, fostering growth, and creating memories that will last a lifetime.
