Episode Synopsis "Episode 1: BHS Orchestra - The Show Must Go On!"

Welcome to the TEaCH Fest podcast, where we explore student-centered learning pedagogy and EdTech and in the classroom. In this inaugural episode, we hear from several students in Dr. Rachel Lauber’s Orchestra Program at Brighton High School as they discuss the challenges they have overcome and the lessons they have learned while participating in the performing arts during the COVID pandemic. Listening to these young musicians, I am inspired by their resilience, creativity, and sense of community. Their comments are excerpts from a longer interview that was part of a day-long content drop at the end of the first semester. This special event was a culmination of a semester’s work exploring a variety of elements associated with the work of musicians. Student work products include an impressive collection of solo and collaborative musical performances, visual art projects, student photography, and other creative pursuits. If you would like to hear the full interview and see other amazing content including the artwork and virtual performances by these students, check out their project page at bhsorchestras.mystrikingly.com
