About Chameleon's Education Program:
Chameleon's series of Education and Family Concerts takes
place at Forsyth Chapel at historic Forest Hills Cemetery.
Over the past 6 years, the program has become a highlight
of our community-based projects each spring.
Our programs are designed to actively connect music with
our world, our lives and our emotions, rather than simply
introducing kids to Mozart, Beethoven and the classical historical
context. We challenge them to find something personal in the
music - how it makes them feel - rather than simply tell them
how or when it was written - and connect them to the process
of creating and enjoying music.
The interactive performances are presented in
collaboration with the Forest
Hills Educational Trust (FHET) and include three (one
public and two school) hour-long concerts along with instrument
demonstrations. New for 2009 is a series of in-class workshops for Boston Public School students in grades 3-5. |
