How do music educators and a symphony orchestra collaborate to make music together? Rachel Hahn (Associate Director Music Education and Worship, Immanuel Lutheran Church and School, St. Charles, MO) and Maureen Byrne (Vice President of Education and Community Programs, St. Louis Symphony Orchestra – SLSO) join Andy and Sarah to talk about how Rachel gets to serve as a music educator, why singing together is important for her personally and the difference it makes for the kids she teaches, and her opportunity to sing with the SLSO in the Extra Credit Choral Concert. Maureen shares about this choral concert, why it is an important event for the SLSO, and how a program like this helps to raise up future professional musicians and educators.
The Extra Credit Choral Concert happens Sunday, November 1, 6:00pm at Powell Hall. Learn more at slso.org/event/extra-credit-choral.
