SUMMARY:Music Together with Stacey Pavesi Debré (ages 0–5)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Today\, it’s common for us to simply listen to music rather than create it ourselves. But actively making music—with our voices and our bodies—is important to children’s overall development. Since 1987\, Music Together\, has introduced millions of children\, parents\, and teachers to the joys of music-making and the powerful benefits of having music in their lives. In our family workshops children and parents learn together through active exploration and live\, meaningful interaction. So\, take out the earbuds and pick up the instruments we were all given at birth—ourselves! Each child (aged 0–5) should accompany one of their favorite grownups. \nAbout Stacey Pavesi Debré:  An American in Paris since 2014\, Stacey has been passionate about music and learning her whole life. She studied piano and string bass\, joined choirs\, orchestras\, a capella groups and musical theaters\, and worked as a vocalist in Japan and a singing bartender in NYC. In 2017\, Stacey founded Bébé Music Box to bring Music Together’s award-winning music and movement classes to families and schools in Paris. Our weekly mixed-age family classes are a fun\, dynamic\, and inspiring way for families to connect through music. Plus\, because music learning supports all learning\, the benefits for our young music-makers extend well beyond class. For more information about Bébé Music Box family classes or to contact Stacey\, visit www.bbmusicbox.com. To read more about music’s magical effects on children\, visit www.musictogether.com. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1672757619539{border-left-width: 8px !important;padding-left: 8px !important;border-left-color: #9e0143 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;}”]Important information:  \nThis event is for Library members\, and advance registration is required.
