“We would hear stories of orphans, disease, and third-world poverty. But there were always stories of hope, too, and of how people could make a difference. Every time I would hear those stories, I would shake my head and think, I ought to go and do something!’ Well, I couldn’t cure diseases or eradicate hunger or poverty...I know music, and I know kids. That was the first spark of what would later become the Music Academy.
Explore the songs, rhythms, and instruments of the Kenyan culture all while teaching your students that, even though our lives are very different, music is something that we all have in common. Join composer and educator Mark Burrows in this heartwarming collection of songs, activities, and lessons from his journeys to Miathene Synod, Kenya. Refresh your teaching with his vivid accounts of working with the children and teachers at the music academy that he helped to establish. This resource will leave you with a renewed hope that the world will be a better place for future generations and the satisfaction of knowing that proceeds from your purchase will help to fund the academy’s continued operations. A CD is included with authentic pronunciation tracks for all of the songs.
