The NEW Greystones School of Music & Drama is a sister school of The DoMiSo Music School and The Wicklow School of Music & Drama. All three schools now offer a combined 15 years of experience in providing music education to the region, pooling resources and working together to continue providing top results for their students.
It's now an established fact that music is a valuable part of a child's early years. Many parents buy music lessons not because they think they have a budding Mozart, but because of the widely held belief that music education promotes skill in maths/science and physical co-ordination. Many of the Young Scientist Award winners are proficient in an instrument to as high as grade 8 standard!
Welcome! DoMiSo has had a wonderful year of Music Making. We enjoyed of first cello ensemble and now have a Children's Choir. We also have some very exciting news! Firstly, congratulations to everyone for getting great results in exams and competitions this year. Fantastic results all round especially Aisling Lawrence who got 100% in her Grade 1 ABRSM theory exam. Well done everyone.
Congratulations to Sani MacNally who won a scholarship to the Royal Irish Academy of Music. Sani has been with us since the early days of DoMiSo and we all wish him the best of luck in his piano studies. We will miss you but I hope you will still come and play for our concerts form time to time.
Now for the BIG NEWS:
DoMiSo Music School and the Wicklow School of Music and Drama will be joining together to start a sister school: The Greystones School of Music & Drama. I look forward to this new adventure with Kerry Anderson. Kerry has been running the Wicklow School of Music&Drama for 10 years now. GSMD will be running from the Greystones Studios/theatre.

Starting from Musical Babies, DoMiSo Music School provides music education in a structured and focused music lesson from a very young age which lays a secure foundation providing easy transition to commence a choice of musical instruments.
DoMiSo Music School is unique in the area as it provides music education in a structured and focused music lesson from a very young age using a method that continues into the early years of instrument learning. We also aim for a high standard of music education and with the help of excellent and experienced musicians and teachers in the school we can achieve this by monitoring the progress of each individual child. All courses, even the 'Drop in musical baby' classes are taught by fully trained and experienced music teachers.
 DoMiSo Aims: DoMiSo Music School aims to provide music education in a fun and relaxed environment following closely to the principles of the Hungarian music educator Kodály. DoMiSo offers 10 courses: Musical Babies and Musical 2 year olds, Kindermusic A, B, C, D, Level 1, 2, 3 Musicianship and Grade 1 ABRSM Music Theroy. (For more info see 'Courses Available'). These classes provide an excellent musical foundation and easy transition for a young child to commence a choice of musical instruments in DoMiSo's sister school, Greystones School of Music. For more information on instruments and other musical group activites for ALL ages visit, www.gsmd.ie.
Kodály believes that music is for everyone. Kodály believes that music education should start at a young age, the younger the better. It should be taught in a relaxed and happy environment through songs, rhymes and dancing that are child orientated and some of which are familiar to the child.
