What to Expect
A gentle, musical arc kids love — and grown-ups actually enjoy.
- Playful movement, real instruments, and story-driven music.
- No pressure to sit still—kids can explore at their own pace.

Each 45-minute class follows our simple arc: Allegro (energize), Largo (relax), Vivace (play), Boogie! (joyful finish).
Meet George
Hi, I’m George — a Melrose dad, music lover, and your guide for Saturday sessions of Bach & Boogie. By day I work in tech and entrepreneurship coaching, but my favorite hour of the week is here: singing, moving, and watching connections spark between toddlers and seniors.
- Beethoven Week is my personal fave.
- It’s never too late to learn (my wife Rita is learning piano!).
- Every child should feel the joy of making music.
