In the wings

: WELCOME COTTER: Indian Hill Music in Littleton invites everyone to put a little music into their lives — even the youngest among us. And on Saturday, March 27, it’s all aboard for fun, music and games with Little Music Train, a free family music play date from 10 to 10:45 a.m. Gaby Cotter, a member of IHM’S early-childhood faculty and a Boston-based Panamanian singer-songwriter, will lead the fun for preschoolers and their parents and caretakers. The 45-minute session includes songs, stories and folklore in Spanish and English. Free on Zoom, but registration is required, and the login will be emailed to you two days before the event. Go to docs.google.com/forms/ d/e/1faipqlse5rfdbrhs7qrxtvmxuzped4ozzbtoaauc n4fpmlmyuismqg/viewform to register.

: LITTLE MUSICIANS: Indian Hill believes it’s never too soon to foster a kid’s musical curiosity either. And they’ve got a bevy of classes starting in April that help to do that. Fun, lively first music experiences include Music for Aardvarks, ages 1-4, with parent/ caregiver, and Drum Buddies, ages 4-6. Ten-week sessions start in April. Group classes in drums, guitar, piano, ukulele, violin and recorder for families, for kids ages 4-9 and up, help prepare them for lessons in a fun, friendly way. These interactive group classes offer structure, connection and a solid foundation in an instrument. Six-week sessions start in April and May. Intro to Voice, Music Theory, Family Recorder, Custom Ensembles and more, for ages 6-17, encourage kids to take their playing and performance skills to a new level. Four-, eight- and ten-week sessions start in April, or join or create a custom ensemble at any time. Adult classes in Jazz Hang, Beginner Piano, Ukulele Club, Music History and more start in April in four, eight or ten-week sessions.
