111 MUSIC
free music creation for all children, young and old

Experienced guides who help children in their musical creation and development are our number one priority.
The method is based on the creativity and freedom of each child. Children are not evaluated through grades, which means there is no rivalry or competition over who is better or worse. Homework for the next lesson consists of compositions that they create themselves in class with the help of a teacher and then have the opportunity to practice at home. This eliminates the fear and stress of failure or of performing in public in front of strangers, which children are often involuntarily forced to do. Through this method, it is possible to replace the aforementioned problems with a love of music. The method offers your children a connection with nature through interactive creative videos using QR codes, which they will find in the primer, and the final part of this primer is also specially dedicated to relaxation, which is very welcome to everyone in these hectic times.
After completing the Music Primer, it is possible to continue with a freely connected publication called Music Mind Maps. This publication was named after the technique of the same name, which was created in connection with the development of the 111 Music method. In musical mind maps, children can apply all the theoretical procedures and knowledge they have learned in the Music Primer, giving them boundless and unlimited possibilities. In their musical creations, they are inspired by pre-prepared themes, which include, for example, the four seasons, summer holiday experiences, the weather, etc. The method also offers children our two other publications, namely Toulky Českou krajinou (Wandering through the Czech Countryside), Part 1 and Part 2. The icing on the cake is our two audio music stories entitled Cesta k babičce (The Journey to Grandma's) and Cesta do pohádky (The Journey to a Fairy Tale), which conclude the children's musical creation, which is based exclusively on their imagination, fantasy, or real experiences, such as those they had at their grandmother's house.
Gentle and non-coercive guidance from the teacher is the essence of a properly conducted lesson using the 111 Music method. We never know in advance the exact course and outcome of the lesson; the main thing is that the child leaves with some new knowledge that they are able to accept and master, and that they leave in a relaxed mood and with enthusiasm for the next lesson. Teaching is always individual, without limited and fixed boundaries in terms of requirements. Through this free approach and the subsequent musical realization of their own imagination, children have the opportunity to combine music, ideas, and their own feelings, emotions, and moods with their abilities and skills. They compose their own musical motifs with the corrections and help of their guide (teacher), which they can then develop in ways other than musically, such as creating simple lyrics for their compositions, their own pictures, using creative techniques such as musical mind maps, etc. The main idea behind this method comes from the ancient belief that music heals the soul. Music should not be stressful. Nowadays, this essential, almost healing power of music is somewhat forgotten.
The aim of this method is to restore the right emotional relationship to music in every child, which can then be used to influence their moods, mental state, and even their relationships with those around them, thereby improving their overall mood, balance, and approach to life. The child's imagination is further supported in this method by the fact that at the beginning of each lesson, they can listen to a selection of many relaxing sounds of nature, such as the rustling of the forest, meadows, birds singing, mountain streams flowing, etc. When creating compositions, the guide can also help the child by, for example, playing their own shorter musical motif on an instrument. The music primer itself is designed so that the child can write down their creations in it, add their own lyrics, pictures, etc. Behind each of their compositions there may be a hidden personal experience, such as a trip with a friend, a trip to the seaside with their parents, or just a memory of a beautiful summer afternoon. Under normal circumstances, they might completely forget about this situation because they have to deal with school, everyday responsibilities, etc. every day. They might take a few photos and videos to post on social media, but this thing they create will stay with them forever. Just as some of us keep diaries and notebooks, this is essentially a similar thing, but with a much greater and deeper effect, which is based on music. There are no limits to imagination and fantasy, so a child can set anything they want to music. And when they grow up and become adults, they will have a completely unique memento of their childhood memories and experiences, which they will be able to show and play to their own children and reminisce about how it was back then.
