Part 3 - Line 4a

TUITION-BASED EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING - IN A TYPICAL YEAR, MYC EDUCATES OVER 500 YOUNG PEOPLE, AGES 7-18, THROUGH ELEVEN CHOIRS DELIVERING A COMPREHENSIVE MUSIC EDUCATION FOCUSED ON CRITICAL THINKING, "EXPERT NOTICING", AND NURTURING A LIFELONG APPRECIATION FOR THE ARTS. OUR 2020-21 SEASON, THOUGH DELIVERED VIRTUALLY DUE TO THE ONGOING COVID-19 PANDEMIC, CONTINUED THIS WORK. FROM OCTOBER 2020 - APRIL 2021, MYC HELD REHEARSALS VIRTUALLY, STUDYING OUR SEASON THEME ROOTED IN THE WORDS OF CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT LEADER ELLA BAKER, "GIVE LIGHT, AND PEOPLE WILL FIND A WAY." THIS THEME FOCUSED ON THE MANY WAYS THAT MUSIC HAS ILLUMINATED THE PATH OUT OF DARKNESS THROUGHOUT HISTORY AND LED US TO LIVELY AND FASCINATING CONVERSATIONS WITH OUR STUDENTS. THIS EXPERIENCE WAS, IN THE WORDS OF ONE LONGTIME MYC PARENT, "IMMENSE AND SUSTAINING AND LED TO AN OVERWHELMINGLY JOYFUL REUNION WHEN OUR CHOIRS FINALLY MET IN PERSON AGAIN FOR TWO OUTDOOR REHEARSALS IN A VARIETY OF MADISON PARKS IN MAY 2021.

WE WERE FINALLY ABLE TO HOLD TWO IN-PERSON, MASKED, OUTDOOR REHEARSALS IN A VARIETY OF MADISON PARKS IN MAY 2021, AND IT WAS WONDERFUL TO HARMONIZE WITH OUR STUDENTS IN REAL LIFE ONCE AGAIN. FOR MANY FAMILIES, WEEKLY MYC REHEARSALS WERE A LIFELINE TO A PLACE OF JOYFUL LEARNING, COLLABORATION, AND SUPPORT.
