"My youngest son developed perfect pitch before he was age 4 by using Mr. Rob's lessons! He is 5 now , and loves to point what notes his Dad is playing on the guitar.
When he can't think of the name of a note he wants to hear, he says stuff like "Mom, I want the song that starts with a G Note! Prodigies music lessons are amazing!"

"This is the most incredible thing! Jaime is 5, mostly non verbal.... she has never put more than 2 syllables of anything together unprompted.
I cried when she sang me Solfege and played her bells on the way to bed one night. She has been watching your video for about a month. Thank you for the magical thing that your program has done for her!"

This truly starts the Core General Music Curriculum with a focus on the note C, each individual note, the C Major Chord and the C Major Scale.
Focus more on the concepts of low and high, left and right, and the interval of an octave as we play more songs with the Low C and High C.

Mi Sol La
Discover the important relationship between C and G (Do and Sol - the 1 and 5) as we play lots of C and G songs.
Here we'll zoom in on the first three notes in the musical alphabet, Do Re Mi, and we'll play lots of 3 note melodies like Mary Had a Little Lamb and Hot Cross Buns.
To start off Level 1B, we'll focus on the sounds of "Nanny Nanny Boo Boo" -- Mi Sol La -- which make up dozens of melodies like "Doggie Doggie" & "It's Raining, It's Pouring."
Fa Sol La
Major Chords
Melodies
Here we'll play more 3 note melodies, but this time in the key of F Major to give us more practice with Fa Sol and La. Plus, we'll play some more difficult songs using 6 notes.
Here we focus on the 3 Major Chords, C Major, G Major, and F Major and play lots of patterns using these 3 chords. We also review our 3 note melodies in G Major (Sol La Ti).
To finish up Level 1, we play dozens of C Major melodies using everything we've learned so far. This combines easier videos with more difficult sheet music as we prep for Level 2.

"I think you’ll be pleased to know that every class my students ask me, “Do we get to watch crazy Mr. Roberto today?” They all love “crazy Mr. Roberto”, and they are all learning a lot of music and having a lot of fun doing it!
Thanks very much for making such great material available. And thank you for opening up some new teaching avenues for me. I’m 50 years old, I have a degree in music, and I’ve been teaching piano since I was 15, but this curriculum has made me a better teacher. Thank you."

"I am so happy that I went through my education foundation in our town to get Prodigies for my special education classroom. My students started with the program in January and even though we move at our own pace through it the progress is amazing!
They have always enjoyed music and it is even therapeutic for some but unfortunately the mainstream class is just too challenging.
This program has brought their love of music into my classroom at an appropriate pace, it’s super engaging and they are learning so many skills. All my students have either increased their ability to follow a rhythm or have now learned to keep a rhythm, follow directions, wait to play which is huge and also control their hands.
My students look forward to the music period in our schedule and sing the cya later song ALL the time. They were beyond excited to watch and play the hello song for #worktogetherwednesday.
It has been life changing to find something so perfect for my students who tend to be left out. I am so grateful to have this program and see the joy it brings to my students!
Thank you for creating such amazing resources for a wide range of kiddos."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
At What Age Should I Start Prodigies?
These days, Prodigies has material for infants, toddlers, preschoolers & school-age kids, which means you can really get started at any time!
We've even heard from Middle School and High School Band teachers who use Prodigies to review theory concepts, and we're constantly adding more difficult material as the program grows.
Now, if you want to unlock your child's life-long sense for pitch and music, it's best to get 2 years of pitch training before age 7 (with the ideal range being between 2 and 6 years old. During early childhood, it's easier to have a lasting impact on auditory development, and so we encourage you to make the most of the early years by using Prodigies!
Is there More Difficult Material for Older Kids?
This one comes up A LOT and the answer is YES!!!
Inside Performance, Melodies, Primary, Holiday & Recorder Prodigies, there is more advanced material for older children (circa age 6-12).
It's true that only Primary Chapters 1 and 2 are currently available, but each of those Chapters are long and incredible detailed (especially Chapter 2).
Plus, we just published the Chapter 2 Course Progression and workbook which includes 10 sections with 4-5 videos, worksheets & sheet music within each section.
Even the videos and activities in our earlier series can be useful & fun for older kids, but the general feel of those programs are understandably designed for younger age groups.

WHAT FOLKS ARE SAYING
"This program has revitalized my 30 year teaching career! Bravo! My students are engaged and learning at a rapid rate. I use this program with my xylophones & Boomwhackers with much success!
Video lessons allow me to float around the room to correct students hand positions and provide one on one instruction where needed. I am able to provide better feed back & it is saving my voice. I ❤️ this program!"
Donna Tugby
Elementary Music Teacher
"The way this is set up is simply brilliant! My children picked up on it very quickly and are now leaps and bounds ahead of where I was at their age (and I actually grew up in the house of two music people!)
They know the solfege and the notes well. The videos are delightful and effective. The workbooks are fun and help reinforce everything. We haven’t even gotten that far into the program. I am so excited about doing recorder, ukulele, and more!"
