Reposting this past post. I know I haven’t posted many seasonal greetings over the past 2 months as I’ve been dealing with personal grief. So a reminder…
We are blessed to have so many different people from different cultures and ways of life and I always want families - children and caregivers- to know I love and respect them for them.
Through the year there are many opportunities to highlight different cultures, celebrations, people, and the music.
What ever you celebrate I wish you well.
This time of year there is MLK day, Lunar New Year, Valentines Day, President's Day, locally our Rodeo, and more.
Throughout the year I'll highlight a variety of music and ways music is used. For example over the holidays I often highlight both traditional western music but also a variety of American folk music which is inspired by so many different cultures & communities.
I also try to highlight music from around the world throughout the year... (including not limited too) Asian, African, Middle-Eastern, Eastern-European.
Another possible highlight are contributions of specific bands or specific musicians of a variety of genres through out the year.
Music is something that all people share. And it can be used to connect us all.
