Early Childhood
A great way to instill the joy and love of music in your child through a well-researched sequential curriculum.  A warm feeling of community with frequent opportunities to socialize with other families throughout the year.

Suzuki-Orff Young Musicians
The Suzuki-Orff Young Musicians program at Chicago Center for Music Education uses the perfect recipe combining the Suzuki and Orff methodologies to teach children to speak the language of music.

Developing Artists
Through our Developing Artists track we offer opportunities for growth to those who have already established a strong musical foundation as well as those who are starting their musical journey at 8 years or older.

Community Music
At the Chicago Center for Music Education we believe that everyone can benefit from the process of making music.  Even if you have no musical experience at all, you can still add musical fun to your life.
