A high-energy dance sequence for Pre-K students focusing on body isolations, dynamics, rhythm, and stylized movement through a 'Neon Jungle' theme. Students will learn the building blocks of jazz dance while developing coordination and musicality.
Une formation immersive de 12 heures destinée aux professeurs-documentalistes pour maîtriser les codes de la littérature adolescente actuelle et concevoir des stratégies de médiation innovantes au CDI.
This sequence explores how technology—from the electric guitar to digital software—transformed music from the mid-20th century to today, focusing on genre evolution, song structure, and production.
A comprehensive introduction to the orchestra and the Classical era for 3rd graders, covering instrument families, specific sections, key composers (Mozart and Beethoven), and the art of conducting.
A 5th-grade music history sequence exploring the development of Jazz and Blues, from African call-and-response roots to the birth of Rock n' Roll. Students investigate structural forms like the 12-bar blues, concepts like syncopation and improvisation, and the cultural resilience behind the music.
This sequence guides 5th-grade students through the evolution of Western Classical music from the Baroque period to the 20th century. Students will explore how societal shifts influenced orchestral size, musical texture, and form through active listening and analytical activities.
A graduate-level exploration of music history through the lenses of migration, diaspora, and cultural hybridity, moving beyond Western-centric narratives to examine how global movement shapes musical evolution.
A graduate-level exploration of how technological advancement (from notation to algorithms) acts as a primary driver of musical aesthetics and evolution. Students analyze the reciprocal relationship between material culture and musical expression using media theory and organology.
This 4th-grade music history sequence explores the evolution of American music from African roots to Jazz. Students investigate how historical context, community struggle, and cultural migration shaped genres like Spirituals, Blues, Ragtime, and Jazz through active listening, writing, and performance.
A chronological journey through the Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Modern eras of Western Art Music, focusing on critical listening and historical context.
A graduate-level studio sequence focused on the transition from technical exercises to a cohesive, professional body of work. Students develop a thematic series, tackle the challenges of large-scale execution, engage in rigorous formal critiques, and curate a final presentation.
This graduate-level sequence explores the intersection of labor law, fiscal strategy, safety protocols, and crisis management within professional theater production. Students develop the leadership skills necessary to navigate union environments and high-stakes technical environments.
An advanced technical theater sequence for graduate students exploring the intersection of light physics, human perception, and visual storytelling. Students move from the biological mechanics of the eye to high-level system integration and dramaturgy.
A comprehensive undergraduate-level sequence on the fundamentals of theatrical scenery construction and rigging. Students progress from safety certification to constructing flats and platforms, culminating in rigging mechanics and installation/strike protocols.
A comprehensive graduate-level exploration of Documentary and Verbatim Theatre, covering ethical research, archival mining, speech editing, character synthesis, and theatrical staging. Students transition from researchers to dramatists, producing original documentary works based on real-world testimony and historical records.
An advanced playwriting sequence for graduate students focusing on the psychological architecture of dramatic characters, subtextual dialogue, and character-driven narrative structures. Students progress from deconstructing archetypes to writing a one-act draft grounded in behavioral truth and internal contradiction.
A graduate-level sequence exploring creative movement as a rigorous Practice-as-Research (PaR) methodology. It bridges phenomenological philosophy and somatic practice to investigate academic questions through the body.
A high-level graduate sequence exploring the transition from solo improvisation to complex ensemble instant composition, utilizing Viewpoints, Contact Improvisation, and indeterminate scoring.
A graduate-level sequence exploring advanced pedagogical frameworks for creative movement facilitation. Students deconstruct somatic cues, developmental patterns, trauma-informed practices, and neurodiverse scaffolding to design inclusive and effective movement workshops.
This sequence introduces Pre-K students to the expressive power of creative movement. Students learn to use their bodies to communicate animals, weather, emotions, and stories, developing physical empathy and creative confidence through guided improvisation and play.
A graduate-level exploration of music fundamentals through the lens of acoustics, psychoacoustics, and tuning systems. Students investigate the physics of sound, frequency ratios, and the historical evolution of scales from Pythagorean to Equal Temperament.
A rigorous workshop-based sequence for graduate music students exploring advanced rhythmic perception, meter architecture, asymmetrical rhythms, polyrhythms, and metric modulation. The course emphasizes both the mathematical calculation and the physical internalization of complex temporal structures.
