Music Bells are a very good start for young children to learn about pitch. Almost all songs that we cover in LLMC can be played on bells. Here is my recommendation: Percussion Plus Music Desk BellsAny brands will do as long as they are following the same colour code:Red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise (or light blue), dark blue, purple Also make sure the bells have a press or push function to ring the sound, not the hold and ring kind. These are much easier to play. Children love the bells because they are very satisfying to play! Providing a clear sound and it’s almost impossible to miss the hit. The rainbow colour makes everything so straightforward and attractive!

For LLMC Level 2 and Level 3. I’d recommend you to get a full size keyboard (88 keys) with weighted keys. However, this is not essential for the classes. Here are some beginner’s models that I recommend:- Yamaha P45 / P125- Casio CDP- S100- Yamaha YDP-144 Arius Digital Piano The above models are imitating a real piano with weighted keys and have a nice quality of sound. If you are not sure you want to commit to a full size keyboard, Casio little keyboard would be a good choice to start with.- Casio SA-46 32 Mini-Keys KeyboardThey are suitable for Level 1 Class. Little ones can still learn to find the notes on the keyboard, looking into musical patterns and play some easy songs before the serious journey.

If you know your child will be away, please let me know in advance. I'll record the lesson and send you the recording, together with the homework and learning materials for that week. This allows your child to catch up at home and continue progressing with the class.

LLMC is for children 3 – 8 years old. It is a progressive music class, learning Musicianship, Rainbow bells or Piano keyboard in Cantonese. The programme is emphasising on internalising music through singing and games, not only learning the theory but also experiencing the music itself. Roundabout Cantonese Music Class is for 0 – 6 years old with parents or carers, a class for the whole family. The curriculum is written by Eveline and Locy Lee, we hope to create a fun Cantonese and music experience for the whole family! There is no overlap between the two. Some families are joining both of them!
