Measurable Outcome(s)

In Didgeridoo: Music from Australia, kids explored the ancient Australian Aboriginal instrument and its relationship between the earth, trees, termites, and humans. It has a broad range of uses, including artistic, spiritual, storytelling, healing and fun.

In Heavy Metal and Hollow Trees, heard a performance focusing on metal instruments such as gongs and Himalayan singing bowls, and the Australian aboriginal instrument the didgeridoo. All the instruments produce unusual, amazing sounds that are not just heard but felt, too.
