Little & Big: Music for Toddlers and Preschoolers - Returning in the Fall!

Classes held Weekly, 3:30 to 4:10 PM​

Music is so vital to a child's upbringing, but it's not always as simple as giving them piano lessons.  Oftentimes, opting for a lesson on an instrument isn't enough for your child's curiosity and artistic growth.  

Allegheny Music Academy has a solution!  We offer private and semi-private courses that focus on general music education, as opposed to more specific instrument lessons.  This course, designed for toddlers and kids in Pre-K, will teach your child a wide variety of concepts, such as rhythm, music history, and simple note reading.  Each course will be taught by a highly qualified music educator and an assistant.  We keep our classes small so we can give each student the attention they deserve.

Catherine Cocco, a seasoned Philadelphia public school music teacher with 20+ years of experience and a master's degree in music education from the University of South Carolina, heads our program.  Dominique Theodore, our Assistant Teacher, a recent Duquesne University graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Music, has already made a mark in the music community with notable performances.

The pricing for the class is $200 for 10 classes.  Stay tuned for updates on the location in Sewickley or Coraopolis, and the specific day of the week for our fall sessions.  

For more information about this great program, please reach out to Catherine@AlleghenyMusicAcademy.com or call (267) 393-1987.  

NOTE: Children must be accompanied by a caregiver during class, providing a fantastic opportunity for bonding and shared musical experiences!

Studio Field Trips

AMA Studio Field Trips!

This AMA experience is one you don't want to miss!  This FREE program is a great way to give our students a glimpse into what music-making looks like when you study hard and have a lifelong love for music.  

The following dates are our Studio Field trips. If you’re joining us, please give Catherine Cocco two days notice. We’ll meet at Ms. Cocco's home studio one hour before the concert begins so that we can have a brief discussion about what to expect (and so that we can carpool to save parking fees)!

Concerts in The Park: These concerts are so fun! You can sit on a blanket on the grass or bring folding chairs. We always bring a picnic, too. They run kind of late, but you can leave anytime you like, and sometimes little ones will fall asleep

 Sunday, June 2 at 7:30PM: Pittsburgh Opera will present a program of arias/ensembles in the South Park Amphitheater.

 Tuesday, June 11 at 7:30PM: River City Brass at Hartwood Acres Park.

Tuesday, July 2 at 8:15PM: Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra will perform patriotic favorites at Hartwood Acres Park. It’s a real party, and children are seen dancing and marching to the music. It runs quite late, though you can leave at any time.
