1 - First Sound (G)

Students begin by choosing their instrument and learning which family it belongs to. They are shown how to assemble, disassemble, and care for non-stationary instruments (recorders, violins, flutes, guitars, mallets, etc.) so they can handle them safely and confidently.

Once set up, students learn how to hold and position their instrument, produce their first clear and steady note (G), and develop good posture and basic technique. Level 1 introduces the musical staff, steady beat, quarter notes and rests, simple echo patterns, one-note motifs, and first ensemble playing.

2 - Tone Range E–F (Add F)

Building on Level 1, students strengthen their basic musicianship through repetition of essential skills: correct posture, embouchure, stick and mallet grip, guitar hand position, and violin bow hold. They review the four instrument families, choose their instrument with confidence, and learn basic assembly, disassembly, and maintenance routines.
With two notes (E and F), students begin shaping short motifs and simple patterns while practising smooth tone transitions and accurate finger changes. Ensemble work focuses on steady 4/4 counting, echo patterns, clear attacks, and developing confidence in playing short musical ideas together.
