This was one of our key questions this semester, and answering it has been an exciting part of our learning. Singers have explored, experimented, hypothesized, gathered data, and of course, looked in detail at the music they are studying. We also had wonderful collaborations with UW Chemistry professors Bassam Shakhashiri and Rodney Schreiner, who brought their UW-Madison based “Science is Fun” presentations to our fall camp. Jim Lattis of UW Space Place led an evening of stargazing for MYC families. Con Gioia performed with Dr. Shakhashiri at the Wisconsin Science Festival, and MYC produced four short videos with local scientists Michael Parsen, Dr. Sam Gellman, Dr. Jim Lattis, and Dr. Amy Wendt for our weekly email notes. Special thanks to MYC Development Director, Nicole Sparacino, for her video production work. Mike Ross, Artistic/Executive Director April 8 & 10 Please Note Every MYC concert is recorded, and each concert represents the extraordinary effort Handel: Messiah and hard work of our young musicians. We want them to remember their performance for its artistry, not its interruptions. Period performance of Handel’s 1741 choral masterpiece! Please silence or turn off all electronic devices.
