“The joy for me as a mother is not only seeing my daughter dance on stage and do something that makes her so happy, but also, and perhaps just as importantly, seeing her develop as a confident and caring young person. I see how she has learned to handle herself with poise. She is eager and glad to help both her peers and the younger students. Through dance, she also is learning the value of working hard.”

Trunk shows at Eye Designs are always an event to remember…they always feature the hottest new looks in quality designer eyewear. One year, Publisher/Editor and local mom Grace Bennett got into the spirit, and even modeled a  pair of Oliver’s People shades from a new collection.  This year will be exciting again as Oliver Peoples and Eye Designs team up to set the trend in fashion eyewear!

This gorgeous bouquet created by Whispering Pines in 2012 helped lend an additional festive feeling to a most memorable 10th year anniversary milestone party for The Inside Press that was celebrated with a couple hundred guests at Crabtree’s Kittle House. Owner Beth Kuck-Hundgen playfully included the publisher’s 10th year anniversary cover in the vase too.

Children are natural-born musicians. They tap, stomp and hum before they even learn their first words. Mothers soothe babies with lullabies; children learn the alphabet through song. While all children develop different interests as they grow, music remains a constant. Music is expression, reflection, and exercise for every part of the mind, body and soul. It is a fundamental component of every child’s development, and can be awakened in a variety of ways.

Music in Chappaqua is a music school founded in 1993, aiming at harnessing a child’s natural proclivity toward music. Music lessons offer a supportive and individualized environment for a child to explore his or her musical tastes. The process of learning music is like that of any other study or sport. One must learn elemental skills, theory and history in order to contextualize a performance.

Besides private lessons, Music in Chappaqua also offers great opportunities for those wishing for a social experience as well. Rock Workshops provide students with a unique chance to collaborate to perform covers or original songs for each other and an audience. Performing in a 
band is like being on a team; each musician responsible for a different part of the whole.

For those who are interested in a more intensive ensemble structure, the New York Rock Academy is the camp for you. A branch of Music in Chappaqua dedicated to providing the best Summer Day Camp experience for the aspiring rock musician, the New York Rock Academy boasts a group of talented and hard-working campers and staff. Registration is now open!

What sets Music in Chappaqua apart from other music schools is that Music in Chappaqua is dedicated to developing a child’s skills beyond the basics. Music lessons become much more than just an after school activity, but actually create a lifestyle. The skills that one learns through music lessons such as discipline, patience and focus apply to any field a student pursues. A child who has a long-term commitment to music lessons will most likely retain that commitment through adulthood, and pass it on through the generations.
