Music in Lower School

The lower school music curriculum is based on the Orff-Schulwerk philosophy that builds music concepts and skills while involving children in movement, speech, rhythm, singing, playing instruments, and improvisation. All Country Day students take music throughout Lower School, and some will pursue a deeper commitment in chorus, band, or orchestra. We offer a full program of choral and instrumental music, including Little Group, bands, orchestra, and Orff ensemble.


Musicians in the Making

In Middle School, students expand on fundamentals, refining their skills in band, orchestra, percussion ensemble, and chorus.

In Upper School, students broaden their creative horizons with band, orchestra, advanced chorale, and Honors Music.
