Welcome to Virtual Class Notes Concerts!
Each year, Classical MPR reaches tens of thousands of students across Minnesota through the Class Notes Concerts program. Designed to engage and inspire elementary students through live musical performance, these concerts help cultivate active listening skills and allow students to experience the joy of classical music.
Due to current circumstances, we have adapted the concert content to provide a virtual Class Notes Concert. Today's Classical Kids Music Lesson will be a virtual Class Notes concert featuring the Concordia Wind Quintet.
Target age range: Grades K-8 Japamala malayalam prayer.
1. First, meet the Concordia Wind Quintet.
Concordia Wind Quintet talked about adjustments they have made so they can play safely during the COVID pandemic. What adjustments have you made during quarantine?
2. Next, listen and watch Concordia Wind Quintet play Umoja, by Valerie Coleman.
Follow-up questions for reflection, discussion, or journaling:
• What did the musicians do to stay together?
• There is no conductor here. How did the musicians stay together? What things did they do?
• Leigh explained earlier that each instrument has its own 'color.' In music, we call that timbre (pronounced TAM-ber). How would you describe the timbre, or musical color of each instrument in the wind quintet?
• Stephanie mentioned that the composer of this piece, Valerie Coleman, wrote it as a piece for celebration. What makes it sound like a celebration to you? Learn more about timbre in the Classical Kids Music Lesson: Music and Color.

Write down or tell someone two things you learned or noticed about the flute.
