Three Chatham elementary schools are gearing up for Music Monday.
Musicians from the Coalition for Music Education will be performing with students at Georges P. Vanier, St. Joseph, and St. Vincent/
Jacquelynn McGlynn, Music Itinerant with the St Clair Catholic District School Board says they’re excited to have these musicians come to Chatham for the first time.
“They’re going to present a bit of a talk about the concept of Music Monday,” McGlynn says. “They’re going to perform a few contemporary works and then we’re going to have an interactive performance of the anthem for this year.”
The idea is to bring students together through song, leading up to what called Music Monday, with schools across the country performing the project’s anthem “Sing It Together” simultaneously on May 1st.
