Southport Performing Arts Conservatory

Sing & Play is a class for children 3 ½ - 6 years old. It serves as a preparation for families interested in studying an instrument within the Suzuki environment, and is an opportunity for anyone who enjoys music to have fun. In Sing & Play, children will be introduced to the Orff approach of music education, which uses very rudimentary forms of everyday activities for the purpose of creating music by young individuals.

Sarah J. Ritch was introduced to music early in life through various instrumental studies encouraged by a very musical family. Though encouraged in the classics, Sarah found herself playing guitar and bass in several Punk and Metal bands between 1996 and 2003, eventually leading to an interest in composition. In 1999, Sarah began her formal musical training in cello performance studying with Moonlight Tran, Assistant Principal of the Las Vegas Philharmonic Orchestra and Dr. Andrew Smith.
