Make Some Noise! Music Classes for Kids (Course in English)

After a successful pilot in Grängesberg, Make Some Noise! we are now providing sessions in Ludvika. No previous music experience is needed.

Content

Children learn about instruments from around the world, rhythm, how to keep a the beat, tempos, dynamics and we also make music together! Making music together can be a great way to build confidence and self-esteem and is also a fun way to learn how to work as part of a group. This course is a great introduction into the enriching world of music, before children begin to learn their first instrument. 

We will use the musical book ‘I Am Nefertiti’, as a starting point for classes. It’s an critically acclaimed children’s book that introduces children to 8 instruments from around the world with an empowering theme of belonging and self-empowerment.

We rehearse on Glashuset in Ludvika. On the last day of the course, we will have a informal showing for family. 

• Wednesdays at 16.15-17.00
• 5 rehearsals
• Each rehearsal lasts 45 minutes

Medborgarskolan and public education

We create public education together in study circles that are driven forward through the exchange of knowledge. The study circle is the popular education movement's classic course form and can be about big and small, local and global. It can be carried out at meetings or remotely and the individual participant can influence the structure and content of the circle according to a democratically inspired model.

Medborgarskolan is a humanistic study association that gives you the opportunity to learn, develop and exchange experiences and thoughts with other people. We have a wide range of activities and cooperation with associations and organizations in many different subjects.
