Vote for my kids music projects at Indaba Music before January 10

Published by Ken Pendergrass at 3:47 pm under indabamusic

If you have been following my blog you know that, the students in my period 2 and period 7 piano classes participated in an on-line music contest hosted by world famous cellist, Yo-Yo Ma, and www.indabamusic.com, an on-line collaboration music service. Each student recorded an original theme and variation using Garageband on the Mac Mini computers in my piano lab. Then they uploaded these files as mp3s to the contest web page at www.indabamusic.com.

The contest is now over, and anyone can go on-line and vote for their favorite submission. The first place winner will have the opportunity to record with Yo-Yo Ma, and the top ten vote getters will get a signed CD of Mr. Ma’s latest album. This has been an awesome 21st century learning opportunity for my students.

PLEASE VOTE FOR US!

It only takes a couple of minutes, and your vote will really help us in this contest. Here is what you do:
