Music Listening Art Activity





For this activity you will need a comfy place to listen as well as some art supplies! Enjoy the piece
Adagio For Strings by American composer Samuel Barber. Pay attention to how the music makes you feel.  Music can be very powerful.

Music Monday

Every year Coalition Canada puts on an event called Music Mondays. I am attaching their website information so that you can take a look.  All day long they are live streaming some pretty cool things from live music to hosting an after party.

The song that they have chosen for everyone to sing this year is called Hymn to Freedom.  Here is some information about it from their website.

Our 2020 anthem is Oscar Peterson’s iconic “Hymn to Freedom,” with lyrics by Harriette Hamilton. At a time when our world can seem divided and fractured, “Hymn to Freedom” espouses a message of unity and equality, which resonates as deeply today as it did in the 1960s, when it was embraced as the anthem of the Civil Rights Movement. We look forward to joining #TogetherInHarmonywith you on May 4.
