Format

Residency

Throughout history, music has been a powerful tool for supporting social, charitable, and political causes and protesting injustice. As important as it is for students to learn about the history of this type of music, it’s even more powerful for them to engage in creating it themselves. In this unique multi-visit residency, which begins with a “Music and Social Change” assembly, Alastair Moock guides students through the process of choosing a cause they care about, thinking about solutions, and finding authentic ways to express their voices in the building of a brand new song. Possible topics may include bullying, LGBTQ+ rights, the environment, racial or gender equality, or any other issue of substance that students and teachers choose to focus on.
