WORLD IN TUNE ^TM

The Integrative Curriculum

World In Tune ^TM is a global music curriculum emphasizing rhythm, modes, listening and creating sounds. World In Tune ^TM  integrates history, art, humanities, mathematics, theater, and dance with music as the core. This requires no great leap of faith, for in the ancient civilizations of China, India, Egypt, Sumer/Babylon, and Greece, music did hold this position. Ancient peoples realized its two-fold aspect: 1. of sounding mathematics and 2. as art which touches the heart. This encompassing world view of music, before the Common Era, placed ancient man in a Musical Garden of Eden.

Today, scientific research is demonstrating how the study of music improves children's cognitive skills

 and social behavior, leading to an all-around improvement in school grades. Although this program was originally created for schools, you don't have to read music to enjoy it.

For all levels.
