Expert Music Education for All Ages
Founded in 1997, we revolutionized music education by creating a dynamic, group-based curriculum that teaches music as a language. Our system, developed by Rosalind Thrift, integrates over 740 original compositions and emphasizes aural learning, fostering musical fluency through listening, singing, playing, reading, and writing. With schools across Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States, we provide structured programs for children aged 2+ and adults, combining contemporary teaching methods with personalized support.Our teachers undergo rigorous training to ensure consistency in delivering our methodology, and we offer ongoing assistance to network schools while maintaining a non-franchise model. Students progress from beginner group classes to advanced individual instruction, achieving exceptional results in competitions, scholarships, and tertiary admissions.
