The most meaningful moment in a child’s musical journey is when they find their spark.
This is made possible through positive community connection, space for exploration, and self-discovery. At Common Tone, we believe in the value of providing an authentic experience for each child. We guarantee that every class uses live music and real instruments because playing music is better together, and Common Tone is better with you!

Common Tone Partners and Collaborations
Common Tone music enrichment programming promotes authentic music exploration for children of all ages.
Founded in 2024 by Baltimore-based teachers Mike Feathers and Beth Pacione, Common Tone encourages students of all levels to develop a love for music and a shared desire to explore its boundless possibilities.
Through thoughtful curricula, original music, and interactive learning experiences, students explore their creativity and express themselves authentically. Common Tone believes in cultivating a community of dedicated educators and musicians who engage and inspire students by implementing the use of authentic instruments and encouraging self-discovery through music.
