Music Appreciation

Mozart Rap

Welcome!

I am so happy to begin the school year by focusing on music that was written by composers from our hometown. We will be studying everything from choral and orchestrated works to rap and hip-hop. I encourage all of you to bring in clips and examples of musical material that you would like to share or learn more about.
