“It is easy to think of elem. gen. music as preparation for those going on to band, orchestra, or choir, but only 10% will continue on to those...The other 90% will become citizens...whose lives will be made better through their own musical joy & competence.“👏🏻👏🏻@feierabendmusic

What musical goals do you have for 2025???

“Scot Hawkins, a piano teacher in Silver Spring, Md., says that ability is low on the list of what's required for adult students. Instead, attitude — especially patience — is everything.”

Hands down hardest-working beginning flutes around! I wish I could describe how difficult it is to do what they are doing. SO impressed!!! @so_central_elem

[Rebecca Showalter @ShowalterMusic]

Kindergarten students loved singing a different version of the folksong, “No More Pie,” with the incredible Ella Jenkins. #makingconnections #firststepsinmusic #elmusiced ⁦@ellajenkinsfilm⁩

After only a few weeks of lessons, @Wylandville beginning band students are off to such a nice start!

Just a few weeks of lessons and these @so_central_elem beginning trombones are already playing one of our favorite songs from 2nd grade music class, “Closet Key.” So impressive!

This week, ⁦@so_central_elem⁩ and ⁦@Wylandville⁩ first graders were incredibly creative in coming up with new ways to use their “Not a Sticks” with the book, “Not a Stick.”

[Rebecca Showalter @ShowalterMusic]

⁦@so_central_elem⁩ Kindergarten students LOVE exploring their voices with our special “buddies.” Singing is always more fun with friends! #elmusiced #musiced #vocalexploration
