About our Center

Located in beautiful downtown Princeton, New Jersey, the Music Together Princeton Lab School, a licensed Music Together center, is as filled with history and excitement as the town. Founded in 1985, the Music Together Princeton Lab School, known as the Center for Music and Young Children until 2009, contributed to the development of the Music Together curriculum and is committed to helping families, caregivers, and early childhood professionals rediscover the pleasure and educational value of informal music experiences. Rather than emphasizing traditional music performances, the Music Together program encourages family participation in spontaneous musical activity occurring within the context of daily life. Our school recognizes that all children are musical and that every child needs a stimulating, supportive music environment to achieve basic competence in the wonderful human capacity for music-making.

As the lab school, we pilot curriculum modifications, new programs, and research for Music Together LLC. We also serve as the public interface to the Greater Princeton area for Music Together through our class offerings, public speaking engagements, outreach programs, community service and sing-a-longs. Our staff, including Music Together founder/director, Ken Guilmartin and his co-author, Dr. Lili Levinowitz, is committed to sharing the joy of family music and the educational philosophies behind it with the entire greater Princeton community.
