musicianship

Monica on the first day of class several years ago: “What do you think musicianship means?”

“Friendship through music”

In Musicianship Level 2, we ended the school year with a composition project. Here are some of the pieces that students composed and performed in class. (Thank you to Rem for helping with piano accompaniments!)

Wesley – A Great Day
Dyson – Thing (performed by Robert and Rem)

Alex – A Little Piece
Bia – A Day at the Park
  • Friends!
  • So serious!
