“Music Learning Supports All Learning” Session at Princeton Public Library Led by Dr. Lili Levinowitz

On Monday, November 2, from 9:30 AM–12:30 PM, Dr. Lili M. Levinowitz will lead “Music Learning Supports All Learning,” an interactive session that explores the role of music in early childhood learning at the Princeton Public Library (65 Witherspoon Street, Princeton). Dr. Levinowitz, a national authority on early childhood music, is a professor of music at Rowan University, coauthor of the Music Together^® early childhood music program, and Director of Research at Music Together LLC.

The explosion of research documenting the importance of the first three years of life has awakened new interest in the theory and practice of early childhood education and learning. In Washington DC, as well as in state and local governments, there is renewed emphasis on and increased funding for early childhood health and education initiatives. 

During her session on November 2, Dr. Levinowitz will discuss and demonstrate how developmentally-appropriate music learning that includes parents, teachers, and other primary caregivers supports positive early childhood life experiences and enhances learning in all domains. This fun, interactive session will appeal to educators, parents, grandparents, and everyone interested in the well-being of our youngest children. 

Music Together is an internationally recognized early childhood music and movement curriculum for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, kindergarteners, and the adults who love them. Originally offered to 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 now offered in more than 2,000 communities in over 25 countries around the world. For more information, visit www.musictogether.com.
