It sounds like a great class! The combination of letting them bring in their
music & playing music that you choose is wonderful. I think that many kids I
know develop their musical tastes beyond the MTV fare because of influences
such as yours, as well as what their parents play or the music they are
exposed to if they are learning an instrument or in musical plays etc.
Diane said, "The flip side of this is that I play a diverse range of music
for them on other days of the week. Their responses are always interesting.
When I play Joni I hear from quite a few that their moms listen to "that
CD." (A reluctant acceptance?) The music they tend to respond best to are
Lorena McKennett, Beatles, world music compilations, and Japanese Kodo
drummers. "
