Cathy Kassa
Cathy has been an integral part of MusicWorks teaching staff since she became a licensed Kindermusik Educator in 1998. Our resident “pied piper”, she includes her flute into many classes.
Cathy received her degree in Music Therapy from Michigan State in 1995, and combines this background with her love for teaching, especially useful for incorporating our special needs children into class. Cathy has a little boy Nathan, who enjoys Kindermusik classes with his mommy. Enjoying Kindermusik as a parent has helped Cathy gain a new perspective on teaching.

Jennifer Brennan
Jennifer Brennan received a BS in Music Therapy from Elizabethtown College in 1995 where she studied the euphonium. Upon realizing that a career playing in the oompa band at the circus was not for her, she moved to the Philadelphia area, where she hauled her guitar (and sometimes a stray drum, violin, or keyboard) all over the city for many years, singing, grooving and enjoying general merry-making, working with all ages, in preschools, assisted living facilities, summer camps and even in private homes.
In 1999, she became a licensed Kindermusik Educator, joining MusicWorks 4 Kids in January 2003. Since that time, she and her husband Ron welcomed their son Henry to the family (both the Brennan family and the Musicworks family!), where he continues the tradition of singing, grooving and general merry-making.
