Kindermusik®
Welcome to Kindermusik®
at First Baptist Church School
of Fine Arts! We invite you to
participate in the world’s
leading program of music and
movement for children from birth
to seven years old. Dedicated to
the development of the whole
child, the curriculum is gently
structured and focuses on
activities that promote growth
in cognitive, physical, social,
emotional and language
development. This valuable
learning experience is designed
to last a lifetime.
Founded in Germany during the
1960s, a group of music
educators collaborated to create
a program for children to
experience music in a joyful
environment prior to instruction
in a formal setting. The program
was translated and adapted for
American families in the 1970s.
Kindermusik was revised in the
1980s to be inclusive of a more
culturally diverse audience.
Under the direction of Dr.
Jonathan Crutchfield, our School
of Fine Arts became affiliated
and individual instructors
licensed to offer Kindermusik in
1997.
