2019-20 Year in Music

I am so thrilled to be back at Dr. Coffin, this will be my third year as the Music Specialist here and I could not be enjoying it more. I am so lucky to work with some absolutely amazing teachers, students, and our staff! This school is truly a hidden gem in our vibrant city.

For the past two years we have entered the CBC Music Class Challenge, and this year is no different. This challenge is a great project for schools across Canada to compete in. It allows students to learn, and perform a Canadian cover song, that could potentially be featured on the radio and earn our school many great prizes. Here is more info including the list of songs for more information: https://www.cbc.ca/music/events/canadian-music-class-challenge/here-are-the-songs-for-the-2019-canadian-music-class-challenge-1.5144193

I am thinking we will be covering Said The Whale's song called 'Camilo (the magician) as it has wonderful lyrics and a lot of extra production ideas are coming to mind. I always look forward to this project and so do the students.

We will begin learning the lyrics and chords and playing music as a group very soon. If youd like to listen to the song and get a jump start its right here --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWUGPkZKFXI

Take care, and more updates soon!
