Music+Magic

= Music Magic =

St. Genevieve Scholl was selected by Musicopia (formerly Strings for Schools) to receive a special grant for a six week “Artist in Residence” program funded by the Connelly Foundation. During the months of February and March, the seventh grade learned about the creative process of songwriting while working with two talented musicians who perform as Minas Duo. As part of the classroom workshops the students wrote their own lyrics and set them to music. The seventh grade's performance on March 17th featured a variety of songs written by Minas (Patricia King and Orlando Haddad). The students brought down the house with the seventh grade original song //Our Class Blues//. The refrain to the song echoed the feelings of all: SGS is the best! Guaranteed or your money back SGS is the best! From the east to the west

Thank you to Sister Theresa, Mrs. White, and our seventh graders for a great performance. Congratulations to all.
