2017-2018 Education Programs Winner of TPAC s 2014 Lumies Award for Best Arts Education Program Grades 3-5: Music in the Schools (MIS) Recipient of the Bank of America Award for Excellence in Orchestral Education Concert Theme: Music Transports You! A Musical Adventure Have you ever listened to a piece of music and felt like you were suddenly in a different place? The s 2017-18 MIS/YPC programs explore how music can transport you to another location, another time or another state of mind. It can send you to the other side of the world or bring you right back home. Sometimes it can even sound like a mode of transportation planes, trains and automobiles! But how does music capture these snapshots of somewhere so different from here? How do composers and musicians harness musical sound to communicate a sense of place? Join the on a musical expedition as we travel together across the country, globe and maybe even the galaxy to discover the answers to these musical secrets.
