A Symphony of Joy, Confidence, and Learning
More than just lessons, our Music Immersion Program is a daily celebration of sound, rhythm, and self-expression. We believe that music is a child's first language: a joyful, powerful way to unlock their potential. From the first song in our infant class to a child's first performance on the violin at an Artisan recital, we integrate music into every moment of the day, helping young minds build the skills that will last a lifetime.
THE WHY
Why Music Education Matters
Beyond brain boosting, modern research confirms that early music education has a profound and lasting impact on a child's development. Music cultivates patience, discipline, and grit: qualities that are essential for success in school and life. It teaches children how to focus on a challenging task, work collaboratively with peers, and celebrate small, consistent improvements. These are the foundations of a resilient and capable learner.
Consider what the research says:
more likely to have higher-level thinking skills
Researchers at Harvard University's Graduate School of Education have shown that children who study music are more likely to have higher-level thinking skills, including problem-solving and critical analysis.
accelerate brain development
A study from the University of Southern California found that musical experience can accelerate brain development in young children, particularly in the areas responsible for language acquisition and reading skills.
Sharpens Listening & Focus
A long-term study published in the journal Psychological Science found that formal music training in childhood is associated with better verbal memory, spatial reasoning, and literacy skills, even into adulthood.
A Musical Journey, One Stage at a Time
Our curriculum is a multisensory and multidimensional approach that is thoughtfully integrated into every child's day. We specifically chose piano and violin because they are two of the best instruments for teaching music theory, fine motor skills, and ear training from a young age.
Infants
Ages 6 weeks - 15 months
Infants
Our youngest students are introduced to music through gentle rhythms, lullabies, and sensory play. We focus on music and movement, using songs to create a peaceful, predictable flow to their day.
Toddlers
Ages 15 months - 3 years
Toddlers
At this stage, music becomes a tool for active discovery. Toddlers explore sound through simple percussion instruments and rhythmic games, building coordination and a joyful connection to music as they learn to express themselves.
Preschool
3 years - 5 years old
Preschool
This is where our formal instruction begins. Children participate in daily, small-group lessons for piano and violin, taught by our talented educators. These lessons are balanced with group singing and movement, helping them build both technical skill and confidence.

THE CULMINATION
Our Annual Recitals
The true magic of the program culminates in our annual recitals twice a year. This isn’t a high-pressure performance; it’s a joyous celebration of each child’s journey and growth. Our students have the opportunity to showcase their hard work and share their talent with family and friends. The recital is a testament to their dedication and a cherished memory for everyone, reinforcing the value of practice and perseverance in a celebratory environment.
Hear From Our Families
Both of my children have gone to Artisan Newton since they were infants and I can't say enough about the caring teachers there. My kids can't wait to go to school or to tell us about all the cool things they did with their friends when they get home. We love all the outside time and the deep appreciation for music that the program has instilled in them.
