Music Together® Classes

Every week in our music classes at Charleston Academy of Music, babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and the grownups who love them come together to play musically. Little ones love playing along in class, and caregivers love being a part of their children’s growth into confident music-makers. And everyone loves our songs that’ll have you tapping along in no time. Music Together is the perfect family activity in the greater Charleston area! At this time, we offer unique Mixed-Age music classes, for children from birth through age 5! There are lots of group activities for kids out there, but Music Together offers a true family music class for the youngest infant to the oldest great-grandparent and everyone in between. Imagine an extended family with a dozen or more kids and a bunch of caring adults, and you'll get the idea!
