Opera Residencies
On March 14th, Maestro Michael Black shared his expertise and passion for music in a choral clinic with students at Senn High School. Senn is one of two CPS high schools that have received year-long vocal training from a Lyric teaching artist, tickets to the Carmen dress rehearsal, and special guest artist visits as part of Lyric Unlimited's High School Choir Residency program.
Palmer Elementary is new to our Elementary Opera Residency program and this video captures one 3rd grade classroom's journey to create an original opera based on a book they are reading in class.
Collectively, Lyric Unlimited's school residency programs impact 683 elementary school students and 278 high school students across the city.
Please join us in congratulating the four dedicated teaching artists who do this important work: Heather Aranyi, Elise LaBarge, Sara Litchfield, and Heather Keith.
