SUMMARY:Oregon Symphony: Mozart & Vivaldi’s Four Seasons
DESCRIPTION:Let’s all agree: The Four Seasons is an undisputed classical Top 40s hit. But\, when Grammy-nominated mandolinist Avi Avital plays it\, you’ll feel like you’re hearing it for the first time — fresh and irresistible. Part of your fun will be listening to Vivaldi’s spot-on sound effects—birds\, a barking dog\, gnats and flies\, the chattering of teeth\, and slipping on ice. This is a piece for all seasons! Plus\, Mozart’s “Haffner\,” with a frolicking finale that he instructed had to be played “as fast as possible.”

SUMMARY:NAfME Webinar: Teaching and Exploring Hip Hop
DESCRIPTION:This session focuses on using Hip Hop Culture and its impact as a teaching tool in the classroom. During the session\, participants will explore and discuss various ways of using Hip Hop in the classroom\, models and approaches to integrating Hip Hop into the curriculum\, interdisciplinary approaches to lesson creation\, and tactics for research gathering and use of information. This session hopes to give its participants a new perspective on Hip Hop as pedagogy and empower educators to use Hip Hop as a teaching tool without having to become an authority on the culture. Participants will begin to envision lesson plans and activities centered on Hip Hop’s place in our society and its impact. When completed\, participants should have greater efficacy in integrating Hip Hop into their teaching and a more profound sense of the possibilities.

Hosted and performed by Mark Pipes\, Instructor of Saxophone at PSU\, the concert features the Portland Saxophone Ensemble—a collective of professionally trained saxophonists who bring together artistry\, energy and diverse musical perspectives. \nThe program celebrates the saxophone’s remarkable range\, blending jazz-inflected classics\, folk-inspired rhythms and contemporary works that reflect motion\, breath and renewal.
