Throughout the program, student participants will be guided by A2SO Teaching Artists, who will offer feedback and play the students’ compositions back to them in real time. The A2SO will also be recording students’ compositions.
Now in its pilot phase, the program will be offered for free and will give Title I schools priority to participate.
Future versions of the program will see expanded grade levels.
“MY Song” is currently debuting as an after school program at Allen Elementary.
