At a Waldorf School, music education is part of the curriculum. At our End-of-Year Assembly, the High School Hand Bell Choir performed “Clocks” by Coldplay, arranged by Keith Richards, and directed by Evan Hart, one of the school’s music teachers.
Our Waldorf high school music program provides an opportunity for students to broaden their cultural horizons, express themselves, and to develop technical expertise. As the students hone their abilities to tune, blend, and interpret various styles of music, they build social skills including tact, sensitivity, and compassion. The high school music electives are: chorus, orchestra/jazz band, hand bell choir, and the Eurythmy elective. The music period provides an important opportunity for “breathing out” after the intensive academic periods in the morning.
