History















The Children’s Music Development Center at Emory University, founded by Tamara Albrecht in 1991, originally offered Kindermusik.  When Kindermusik’s leading authors and founders, Dr. Lorna Heyge and Audrey Sillick, established Musikgarten in 1994, the CMDC found their new approach to music education much more suited to the university’s philosophy and began offering Musikgarten exclusively.

As you familiarize yourself with our class offerings, teachers, and philosophy and learn more about Musikgarten, we look forward to answering your questions and welcoming your family into our music studio.
 

I would suggest that Musikgarten nourishes children in three ways: Their souls are nourished by the music itself; their bodies are nourished by the graceful movement; and their minds are nourished by the rhythm.
