CLASSICS FOR THE CLASSES - MARSHALL PUTS SOME MOVES ON MUSIC

Handel and Haydn (6 photos)
Some of our 8th graders (and a few of our 7th graders) got treated to a performance by a quartet (accompanied by a pianist) from Handel and Haydn. They introduced themselves and their roles (soprano, alto, tener and bass) by demonstration. Through the magic of a time machine, we were able to learn about oratorios directly from the composer, George Friderick Handel, himself! Thank you to the Handel and Haydn Society for entertaining and educating us! As usual, our students were very polite hosts and audience members.
