Representation & Advocacy
Confluence: Connecting with Each Other through Music
Charisse Baldoria, chair
How can music deepen our connections with each other as teachers, creators and human beings?
Music embodies spaces where people and traditions meet. From exploring the Persian and Burmese piano to establishing equitable practices, how might we create safe and joyful havens for others? Through improvisation and composition, or playing Filipino, Kiwi, Korean, African or Arabic music, how might our students appreciate the range of human experience?
We highlight confluences and our shared musical home.
