What’s coming up

So many reasons

to sing

Good news. Bad day. Feeling stuck. Starting something new and big. Loss. Gain. Looking for answers. Full of hope. No matter your day or current circumstance, there is a reason to sing because of who God is and because He loves us.

That’s what fuels the Contemporary and Traditional Music teams as they lead worship experiences, put on concerts and musicals for the community, and teach the next generation of musicians.

these aren’t your average music programs

Calling all tiny musicians, singers and performers! Our youth music programs are taught by professional musicians and music teachers. Kids make friends, learn music and make a whole lotta noise!

Fall 2023 registration will open by June 1!

CHILDREN LOVE MUSIC!

Your child isn’t too young to start learning the Musikgarten way. We have classes designed for you and your newborn, toddlers, and preschoolers. In Musikgarten we help you & your children develop their inherent love of music and musical skills through active movement and fun-filled songs.

Fall 2023 Session is 13 weeks of classes that meet once a week for 30 minutes. There are several class choices every day of the week except Sundays. Each family receives Musikgarten’s outstanding recorded music and a colorful book to use at home.

Cost for the semester is $135 (Two or more siblings registered in the same class will receive a $25 per registrant discount)

BABY CLASS: Newborn to 17 months.

Music class with your baby features bouncing and rocking songs, wiggle and peek-a-boo games, and other fun activities for the two of you. This class includes a take-home packet of Musikgarten’s outstanding recording of lullabies and folk songs, a parent guidebook, and baby instrument kit (rhythm sticks, soft wooden rattle, colorful scarf).

Musikgarten for babies:

  • Increases your baby’s curiosity about music.
  • Develops listening skills and a sense of beat.
  • Establishes a foundation for singing and musical thought.
  • Helps you form a closer bond with your baby.
  • Gives you a chance to interact with other parents.

FAMILY MUSIC for MIXED AGES: Babies (18 months) through 5 years old. (Babies younger than 18 months are welcome if attending with an older sibling or with permission)

Family Class is designed for all ages of preschool children and their grownups to experience the joy of music making together as a family. Each week you and your child will have 30 minutes packed full of kid-friendly folk songs and experience a variety of simple instruments to nurture your child’s musical aptitude.

Musikgarten classes develop key skills, vital for all learning:

  • listening skills
  • following directions
  • impulse control
  • communication skills
  • positive social interaction

(That’s important for you to know, but for your child, it’s all about the pure fun of music and movement shared with you!)

CYCLES OF SEASONS: Children 3.5 to 5 years old

This class is for the child who can manage longer listening times, some discussion and more complex physical movement.  In this class we musically explore the current season in our weeks together.  Your child will delight in the changing seasons through folk songs, dances & games, pictures, mini-discussions, and focused listening activities. We build on their earlier music experience in rhythm and tonal patterns with the addition of more advanced rhythm language and solfege.  Hearing and playing a wider variety of percussion instruments will have them asking to play fun impromptu instrumental compositions.

Younger siblings are welcome to attend this class with their older sibling with permission from the program director.

If your child enjoys musical theater as much as singing in choir, MusicPraise may be just the right fit!  Dramatic expression and riser choreography are introduced in addition to teaching proper choral singing techniques.  Music Praise is Christ Chapel youngest performing choir and during the year students typically have several opportunities to sing for our congregation, including Christmas Cantata and musical showcase.    

MusicPraise Fort Worth is led by Yana Cisco.  In the spring this group will work on producing “Danny and the Shacks” musical, which we will perform together with Acclaim choir on April 28, 2023.  We will also have an opportunity to appear in traditional worship service.  

MusicPraise West is led by Yana Cisco.   In the spring MusicPraise West will have two opportunities to showcase their talents on amazing West campus stages as part of worship services.  We will focus on choral singing, musical theory, movement and rhythm activities.

If interested in joining the orchestra, email Jennifer at [email protected].

A five-octave adult hand bell choir performs five to six times a year in worship services. The choir members vary in musicianship level and bells are assigned according to music reading ability.
