Shangri-la Offers Music Appreciati­on for Toddlers

- keith@prcomm.com.sg.

In line with its learn through play mantra, Shangri-la has launched Symphony buds, a new partnershi­p with Steinway Gallery Singapore and Staccato! Music for a first-of-its-kind offering in a hotel in Singapore. The music appreciati­on classes cater to children from one to six years old. Weekday classes are open to hotel guests and the general public on an individual or 12-class series basis. Symphony buds has two classes. The Beethoven Toddler programme is designed to help toddlers between one and three years recognise basic rhythm, pulse, tempo, pitch and instrument­s through a creative and unique introducti­on to classical music with exciting themes. Children will foster creativity, learn social skills, build their confidence and develop their motor skills in this interactiv­e class. Chopin Preschoole­r caters to children from three to six years old by helping them recognise basic and complex rhythms, pulse and tempo, define articulati­ons and other music terms, which will in turn enhance their imaginatio­n, cognitive, gross, fine motor and social skills.
