For The Mysterious Musical Machine

 

“One of the best indicators of a presentation’s success at the elementary level is the quiet attention of the audience during the performance. As I looked out on the nearly 300 children ranging in grade levels from kindergarten through fifth grade, I observed not just quiet attentiveness but a rapt and enthusiastic enjoyment.”

--Lyn Boudreau, Steele Elementary teacher

 

“Thank you so very much for putting on a show for us. I really like how you sang a song from every time in the world. I learned a lot of stuff about songs.
