Dear Symphony students,
Here are some links and resources apropos of our composers and music for this cycle.
Listen to the music (see above).
Read about The Accursed Huntsman*
Find out more about David Bowie and "HEROES"
Use these ideas to inspire and excite you to practice your music very carefully and methodically.
See you Saturday!

(aside -- here is information on the Fontainebleau Conservatory program founded by Lili's sister, Nadia)
*The Accursed Huntsman is an ancient legend that was retold many times in different forms. Franck's tone poem is based on one poetic retelling that is quite artistic. See here.
