Heartland Music Together
Music Together is an internationally recognized early childhood music, program for infants,
toddlers, preschoolers, kindergarteners, and the adults who love them. First offered in the public in 1987,
it pioneered the concept
of a research-based, developmentally appropriate early childhood music curriculum that strongly emphasizes and facilitates adult involvement. Music Together classes are based on the recognition that all children are musical.
