Sign up for Classical MPR's Classical Kids newsletter

Classical MPR invites you to sign up for Classical Kids, our new weekly newsletter about sharing the power of classical music with young people in your life.

Classical music has a powerful impact on the lives of young people who get to know it. First and foremost, there's the sheer lifelong joy that musical arts can engender. Participation in music also helps young brains develop, improving both school attendance and academic performance. It channels emotion, teaches focus, and encourages collaboration with others.

The Classical Kids newsletter is designed to connect the young people in your life to the multiple offerings Classical MPR has for them. Each week, the newsletter comes to your inbox with educational tips from musical experts, our daily Classical Kids Music Lessons, video and curriculum content, classical stories, and invitations to participate in programs like Minnesota Varsity. Subscribers also will receive the Free Family Download, a handpicked, downloadable piece of classical music.

You must be 13 or older to submit any information to American Public Media. The personally identifying information you provide will not be sold, shared, or used for purposes other than to communicate with you about things like our programs, products and services. See Terms of Use and Privacy.
