Music Theory
Music theory is the art of reading and writing music. Its practice is essential for a musician's development. The course focuses on singing and listening, with specific songs well-suited for children. In parallel, a rhythmic sensibility is cultivated, which subsequently prepares for learning to read notes, rhythmic reading, songs, and musical culture. These courses aim to provide students with the necessary tools to flourish with their own instrument. The music theory curriculum at Cadets lasts 4 years and is for children aged 7 and above.
