Western Vocals — Early Learners
SSLCM Certified Ages 3–6
WM001 • Early Years Specialist

Western Vocals — Early Learners

"Joyful Foundational Vocal Discovery for Little Learners"

At Klarice Academy, we believe every child possesses an innate musical instinct waiting to be nurtured with gentleness and play. Our Early Learners Western Vocals programme is thoughtfully structured for little ones aged 3 to 6, blending the proven sensory techniques of Kodály and Dalcroze with joyful English nursery rhymes, folk melodies, and gentle solfège games. Rather than imposing rigid adult exercises, our certified vocal educators guide children to discover their authentic singing voice through playful breath awareness, animal sound imitations, pitch matching, and rhythmic clapping. Held in our warm, acoustically supportive studios in Santoshpur, Kolkata, these sessions foster joyous musical confidence, active listening, and language readiness in an emotionally secure environment.

Western Vocals — Older Learners
SSLCM Certified Ages 7 to Adults
WM002 • Exam & Performance Track

Western Vocals — Older Learners

"Vocal Power, Diaphragmatic Control & Contemporary Artistry"

The Western Vocals programme for older learners at Klarice Academy is an immersive, scientifically grounded singing academy tailored for school students, teenagers, and passionate adults. Whether your aspiration is to master contemporary pop, acoustic soul, Broadway musical theatre, or jazz standards, our curriculum bridges professional physiological vocal technique with authentic artistic emotional delivery. Students receive intensive instruction in diaphragmatic breath support, vocal register blending (chest, mixed, and head voice), resonance placement, vibrato control, and microphone technique. As the official SS LCM Centre in Kolkata, we prepare students for prestigious University of West London graded qualifications (Grades 1 through 8 and DipLCM / ALCM diplomas) while curating live band performance opportunities throughout the academic year.

Guitar — Acoustic, Classical & Electric
SSLCM Certified Ages 6 to Adults
WM003 • Instrument Track

Guitar — Acoustic, Classical & Electric

"Fingerstyle Precision, Rhythm Chords & Lead Guitar Mastery"

At Klarice Academy, guitar education is reimagined from the fretboard up. Rather than mindlessly memorizing chord shapes without context, our learners develop an intimate understanding of fretboard geometry, ergonomic hand posture, rhythmic groove, and harmonic theory across acoustic, classical nylon-string, and electric guitars. Guided by seasoned performing concert guitarists, students progress from crisp open chords, clean barre transitions, and fingerstyle plucking to complex jazz voicings, blues improvisation, pentatonic soloing, and sight-reading standard staff notation. As an affiliated SS LCM centre in Kolkata, we prepare our guitarists for University of West London examinations while empowering them to compose, jam with fellow students, and lead ensembles with unshakable rhythmic confidence.

Electronic Keyboard / Piano
SSLCM Certified Ages 4 to Adults
WM004 • Instrument Track

Electronic Keyboard / Piano

"Two-Hand Independence, Classical Touch & Modern Keyboard Harmony"

The piano and keyboard are often hailed as the king of instruments—offering a complete orchestra beneath the touch of ten fingers. At Klarice Academy, our keyboard and piano studio combines classical European technical discipline with modern electronic synthesizer and keyboard versatility. Students learn curved finger posture, fluid wrist relaxation, grand staff sight-reading (treble and bass clefs simultaneously), and independent hand coordination. Progressing from simple melodious folk tunes to Bach inventions, Chopin nocturnes, contemporary cinema soundtracks, and jazz chords, our curriculum gives learners an unrivaled cognitive boost. Under our SS LCM Kolkata Centre affiliation, students regularly achieve Distinction in University of West London examinations.

Violin
SSLCM Certified Ages 5 to Adults
WM005 • Strings Track

Violin

"Soulful Bowing Technique, Microtonal Intonation & Classical Grace"

The violin is widely regarded as one of the most demanding yet deeply expressive acoustic instruments in the world. Because the violin possesses no frets, producing a sweet, ringing tone requires immaculate left-hand intonation, relaxed shoulder poise, and exquisite bow control. At Klarice Academy, our violin studio demystifies the instrument through a patient, step-by-step anatomical approach. Guided by master string educators, students develop relaxed chin-rest balance, fluid bow draw with correct wrist flexibility, precise finger placement along the fingerboard, and rich vibrato. Affiliated with SS LCM Kolkata, we guide learners from their very first open-string bowing exercise through to grand Classical sonatas, Celtic folk tunes, and University of West London graded diploma credentials.

Drums & Percussion
SSLCM Certified Ages 6 to Adults
WM006 • Rhythm Track

Drums & Percussion

"Rhythmic Independence, Limb Coordination & Groove Dynamics"

At Klarice Academy, the drum studio is a powerhouse of rhythm, focus, and kinetic energy. Learning drums is far more than hitting pads loudly—it is an exacting art of four-way limb independence, dynamic groove consistency, metronomic internal clocking, and explosive musical expression. Our curriculum trains students on acoustic drum kits and professional electronic kits with mesh heads. Starting from matched grip stick technique, rebound control, and fundamental 26 American rudiments (single strokes, double strokes, paradiddles, flams), students advance into rock backbeats, funk syncopations, jazz swing rides, latin polyrhythms, and drum chart sight-reading. Affiliated with SS LCM Kolkata, we prepare drummers for prestigious University of West London qualifications while teaching them to anchor real bands with authority.

Ukulele
SSLCM Certified Ages 4 to Seniors
WM007 • Accessible Strings

Ukulele

"Gentle Strings, Quick Chords & Joyful Sing-Along Warmth"

The ukulele is one of the friendliest, most heartwarming, and instantly rewarding instruments on the planet. With only four gentle nylon strings, a compact lightweight body, and simple chord configurations, it allows children and adults to produce melodious music within hours rather than months. At Klarice Academy, we treat the ukulele as a serious musical instrument rather than a novelty toy. Students learn correct thumb and finger picking (Hawaiian and contemporary styles), island strumming patterns, chord transitions (C, G, Am, F, Dm, Em), and voice-instrument synchronization for sing-alongs. It serves as both a joyful lifelong companion and the ultimate bridge instrument toward acoustic guitar and violin for young learners.

Early Learning Music
SSLCM Certified Ages 3 to 6
WM008 • Early Development

Early Learning Music

"Sensory Sound Discovery, Orff Percussion & Musical Imagination"

Before a child is asked to read notation or hold a complex instrument, they must first fall in love with the magic of sound itself. The Early Learning Music programme at Klarice Academy is a research-backed, multi-sensory music immersion curriculum designed for toddlers and preschoolers aged 3 to 6. Drawing upon the world-renowned methods of Carl Orff, Zoltán Kodály, and Émile Jaques-Dalcroze, our classroom is an enchanting wonderland of xylophones, glockenspiels, colorful boomwhackers, maracas, triangle bells, rhythm scarves, and floor keyboards. Children experience music kinesthetically through gross motor movement, story-led listening games, and vocal play—building cognitive pathways that supercharge spatial reasoning, language acquisition, and emotional calm.
