Art and Music

 
Welcome to the Music website.  This is a very exciting year here at STM.  We are in the new music and art rooms.  Please come by and check out our new rooms.  In October, we dedicated our new construction with a special Mass by the Bishop and a concert in the Music Room by current and former students.  The North Carolina Boys Choir also joined us to help celebrate this special occasion.
 
We continue to participate in the NC Symphony School Concerts and year before last we were featured along with other schools around the US on the World's Largest Concert Video. 

 

Check your grade level for the exciting plans in music class this year. 

One important  focus for the 4th graders in music class this year is preparing for their visit to the North Carolina Symphony.
We will go to Meymandi Concert Hall in Raleigh on May 5, 2011, to hear the school educational concert. The focus at this year's concert is "What Makes Music Music."

As part of the preparation for this concert, we study composers from around the world and the musical concepts that are featured in their music. These concepts include melody, harmony, tempo, dynamics, texture and form.  We will also prepare to play our recorders at the Symphony Concert.  We are preparing "De Colores" on the recorders with some percussion instruments also.

You can find this song in the Students Symphony Book on the final page as well as information on all the composers and songs we are studying.  Click here to download the student book.
