Class description:

Great Bend Center for Music’s early childhood program, Sound Scholars™, provides free, daily, online music instruction in the internationally acclaimed El Sistema model.

Otters (Pre-K) learn that they are already musicians; that they can already find and feel the beat, tell high from low, and fast from slow. Through games, exercises, songs, and yes — even composition assignments — learners come together to explore the primary elements of music making and notation while also discovering their own initial musical preferences and strengths.

Classes are 30 minutes long and students attend every weekday during the ten-week term in Winter, Spring and Fall. Students can enroll anytime during the year, and most families attend year-round. The upcoming 2023 Winter Term of Otter Pup Pod will meet at:
