Monaco Expands “Music for All” Programme Across Kindergartens

MONACO — September 9, 2026 — Monaco has expanded its early childhood music education programme for the 2026–2027 academic year, bringing the “Music for All” initiative to every Grande Section kindergarten class in the Principality. The programme was developed following a pilot phase conducted during the previous school year in two trial classes. Under the expanded initiative, children will receive a weekly 45-minute session led by a specialist school music educator. Activities will focus on musical discovery, listening, sound exploration and collective practice, giving children an opportunity to develop their relationship with music from an early age. The programme is being delivered in partnership with the Rainier III Academy and Monaco's education and municipal authorities. Officials say the initiative is intended to make musical education more accessible while encouraging creativity, expression and group participation. The expansion forms part of Monaco's wider educational and cultural programme for young residents during the new academic year.
