(Rockport, ME) Bay Chamber is excited to expand its Community Music School by introducing the Midcoast Music Together program. Midcoast Music Together offers a variety of classes specifically designed for mixed ages (birth to age 5), preschool programs, and infant classes. The Music Together experience includes songs, rhythmic rhymes, movement, instrument play, and more! These activities are presented as informal, non-performance-oriented musical experiences that are developmentally appropriate and easy for parents and caregivers, regardless of their own musical ability.

Classes will be held in the Recital Hall at Bay Chamber’s brand new headquarters at 18 Central Street in Rockport. Bay Chamber is pleased to offer a free demonstration of the class with instructor Jessica Day on Monday, July 12th from 10:00 to 11:00 am. Please RSVP by phone by calling 207-763-3799 or email This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it The full six-week program begins on Tuesday, July 13th.

Founded in 1961 by brothers Andrew Wolf and Thomas Wolf, Bay Chamber is dedicated to sustaining classical music as an art form—for that is its legacy. In concerts and in the classroom, Bay Chamber feels a responsibility to pass along this rich musical heritage to people of all ages and abilities while at the same time acknowledging the importance, and encouraging the exploration of all musical languages.

A 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, for 50 years, Bay Chamber has awarded annual prizes to young Maine Musicians. Bay Chamber Community Music School offers private instruction, orchestral opportunities, and other music education to local musicians and community members of all ages and abilities.

Bay Chamber Concerts presents music year-round through two performance series: the Summer Music Festival during the months of July and August, features classical, jazz and film events in the historic Rockport Opera House and Strand Theatre in Rockland; and the Performing Arts Series from October through May, showcases a variety of classical, jazz, and world music, as well as dance events in venues throughout Midcoast Maine.
