Music Forever Music Together Gift & Greeting Card

Business Description

Native Austinite, founder/director Michael Shay (B.A. Music- Prescott College) grew up in a musical household. He attributes his musical abilities to growing up in a music-filled environment. As a baby, toddler, and pre-schooler, he sat with his mother as she taught piano lessons, soaking up music day after day for years. Later, he learned cello, piano, guitar, and bass, played in orchestras, and studied at the Austin Chamber Music Center, where he later became a teacher.

After years teaching students of all ages, in many genres of music, on many different instruments, he believes that the role of all music educators is to help others access our natural musicality and unlock our innate creativity. Understanding the immeasurable impact that the first years of life have on musical development led Michael to want to invest in a more musical world for future generations by sharing music around the world, and by helping Kate, Becky and Lindsay offer the Music Together curriculum in Austin.
