The Rising Artist program is designed for young students (ages 4–8) to joyfully explore the world of music through hands-on, fun and educational learning, with voice and a variety of instruments. Children discover their musical strengths, explore basic concepts of music appreciation and try out different instruments, while building foundational skills and learning music as a language, through individually paced lessons and customized approach (foundational and/focused discovery paths).

This Program is offered at both Germantown and Collierville Music Box locations.
