Creativity abounds as the Orchestra Long Island String Quartet or Quintet engages student through words, music and art. Students create original works of art based on the music. They write haikus, the ancient Japanese poetry art form. The musicians set the haikus to music, accompanied by students playing percussion. Children learn how words, music and rhythm work together through themes by Saint-Saëns and Mozart (music subject to change). Note: Details for submitting student creations will be discussed in advance. Study materials included.
