Broadway Bound is pleased to announce the addition of the nationally acclaimed Musikgarten program to our curriculum. Musikgarten programs awaken and develop your child’s inborn joy and talent for making music. Early childhood – a time of rapid growth and brain development – is the optimal time to start their musical journey. Beginning at Family Music for Babies and continuing through Music Makers At the Keyboard, your child steps across that important bridge from general music learner to instrumental skill. Choose from Musikgarten’s full spectrum of classes from birth to age 9, and share with your child the gift of music – the gift that lasts a lifetime. For a complete description of programs and materials pick up a brochure at the studio or check out their website at www.musikgarten.org. You can also check out the class schedule under Class Schedule.

ANNOUNCING OUR NEW MUSIC PROGRAM

Featuring Dave Shallah on drums! 

We have begun a music program at Broadway Bound that includes piano and voice lessons and drum lessonsby the accomplished drummer Dave Shallah.  Dave has been playing drums for 30 years and teaching privately for the last seven. He has studied drums from a very young age with various instructors in the New England area. His studies have included Rock, Jazz, Blues and Latin music. He has experience playing in the live environment as well as doing studio recordings. His curriculum includes learning to read drum music, learning rudiments, drum beats and drum fills. He also focuses on proper timing and tempo as well as understanding rhythm and musicality always with an emphasis on fun and a relaxed atmosphere. Dave is now accepting students of all ages and all levels. He resides in Merrimack with his family.

They received a High Gold as well as first place overall for their Rising Star Category and first place overall for the entire Junior Division.  They also received the special “Coolin’ and Chillin” award and cash prizes.  The boys also received a High Gold Award for their hip hop routine and second place honors in their division.  At the conclusion of the event they were asked to perform at the convention’s farewell reception.  The members of the team are Gregory Nguyen of Nashua, and brothers Michael and Robert DeFelice of Merrimack.
