School Arts Project Grant

This residency will: provide the community with live professional music at the night concert and provide a comprehensive understanding of band techniques to supplement my curriculum, and increase each student’s skill in music through up-close and in-depth learning from professional musicians. The primary feedback will be from me, the students, and the community. The Copper Street Brass use a survey, shared through Google Docs, for me (and other staff/volunteers) to complete after the residency. In addition, the audience will do a brief survey at the evening performance. The Copper Street Brass and I will also get verbal feedback from students in the classroom and from audience members at the concert. This feedback is an immediate and important reflection of the Copper Street Brass’s work in the classroom and on stage.
