Informance, Performance, and Concerts, Oh my!

Saturday, January 25, 2025
10:00 AM - 10:45 AM

Description
Design developmentally appropriate, curriculum-based, & engaging general music concerts. Refresh your concert practice! Get your students (and your audience!) singing, dancing, arranging, playing, and more. We’ll take songs and activities that you may already do in your classroom everyday and explore how to smoothly integrate them into your concert practice, creating performance/informance experiences that are easily prepared and facilitated by you and your students.
