Classical Music and Art - Drawing Connections

Let's Explore our Emotions through classical music.

Each week will begin with introductions of learners, as well as a new classical music artist. We will learn about the Musician - where they lived, their era, the song they were best known for etc., Learners will then listen to various songs by this artist while doodling or drawing using various mediums. After each song, we will discuss the emotions we felt during the song as well as share what those emotions led us to do in our art.

Classical music offers so much insight into ourselves as well as the artist, and this class is a wonderful opportunity for learners to become in tune with these feelings.
