We’ll learn about the different kinds of percussion instruments used in Ghanaian music, and how drumming is part of life in Ghana.
We’re taking a (virtual) trip to different parts of the world and learning about music from different places! Today, we’ll learn about music from Thailand and Iran with multi-instrumentalist and composer Jon Silpayamanant.
Getting along with friends can be a challenge, but we’ve got the musical solution! We’re returning to the magical land of Arpeggio for today’s adventure. Sing along with the Three Fierce Fairies!
It’s a time-traveling musical adventure as we learn about beat and rhythm. We’ll put on a pair of magical boots that will help us save the future of music!
We’ll explore the world of dynamics (how loud or soft a sound is) with a big box of fireworks! KA-BOOM! You’ll hear some very special pyrotechnics and learn some special words to describe dynamics.
You’ll learn about how math is used to make music! Just like chopping vegetables in half, you can chop notes in half too.
So many people in our community are grieving and reacting to current events related to the Breonna Taylor case. Out of respect, we’re going to postpone today’s episode until next week. We’d rather direct your attention to what’s happening in our city now.
So many of the composers we usually learn about in school are men — but that’s only telling half the story of who writes the music we love.
