Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I currently teach several classes in piano lab for high school students in a Title 1, public high school in the North Bronx, New York. Students are evaluated on their musical competency through weekly rehearsal, performance assessments, in-class discussions and written responses concerning a specific music tradition. Rehearsals culminate in an end-of-the-month, in-class performance, where students from other classes and staff can observe their performances. Students give three formal concerts (winter, spring, and graduation), which are open and free to the public and community performances (e.g. Edgar Allan Poe Band Shell). Students, family members, staff and other community members are encouraged to attend the student musical performances. My students need two workshops on how to create movie soundtracks and compose for the visual medium.
