April Themes

Music History: This month music history will be covering Bossa Nova. Bossa Nova is a style of music that was developed in the late 1950s and early 1960s in Rio de Janeiro. Learn more about it at music history this month! If you have any questions, you can ask your lab attendant.

Composition: Will be updated soon, but expect more Bossa Nova music.

April Young Students Blurb: For April, we are featuring the game Isle of Tun for our young students! This game lets students create roadways with objects that make a song! It’s a great way for young kids to learn about composition. And, as always, we have some great spring-themed coloring pages!

New Lab Lead

In April, Jacob Rhymond will be promoted to a lab lead. He has been a music lab attendant since 2020. He spearheaded our recent lab upgrades where we installed new windows 11 computers and replaced all our ethernet connections. We couldn’t be happier for Jacob. He’s always friendly, so be sure to congratulate him when you see him next.

Winter Playlist 2022

The first MTMS Lobby Recital went really well! Thank you everyone for participating to make the week a success. We’re always so excited to watch our students show off their new skills and enjoy their music.

The playlist shares all the students who performed throughout the week. We can’t wait to do this again. Please don’t stop the music!

March Themes
