Today the United States of America continues to tabulate, count, or complete the tally of each vote cast according to every state's election laws. We are still a Democratic Country with Election Laws.
It may not yet be clear who won this election, but it is very clear that we live in a very divided country. This saddens me deeply because all of our children deserve better. OUR CHILDREN DESERVE BETTER!
So, what brings us together? MUSIC! I look at every child and see beauty, curiosity, joy, potential and love. I look at every parent, grandparent, and caregiver and I see how they interact with each beloved child; seeing beauty, curiosity, joy, potential and love. Let's start there. Let's hold onto that for a minute and then build upon that.
I believe that Basic Music Competence, the ability to sing in tune with accurate rhythm is a right that belongs to every child. That love of music and the ability to experience world music is what brings us all together.
Let's look for common ground outside of our beloved music classes, holding in our heart's that it exists.
In the meantime, let's continue to sing, dance, play and learn together as we make Music Together®. Thank you! ~Wendy
