The award-winning Voices Within is an artist residency program designed for fifth grade students who learn how to tap their creative voices to compose and perform their own original songs. The program curriculum, which fully integrates the arts into Common Core strategies, combines elements of music composition, writing, improvisational games, and collaboration skills delivered over a 12-week residency. Final culmination performances are followed by an evaluative visit. Working in close partnership with teachers and administrators at participating schools, the three Voices Within teaching artists (a composer, a lyricist, and a performer) create a safe environment for the students and mentor them to boost 21st Century Skills. The teaching artist team encourages creative risk taking among the students who learn to identify and courageously express their inner voices.
Voices Within is an educational artist residency program developed for the Los Angeles Master Chorale by Marnie Mosiman, in collaboration with Bernardo Solano, Penka Kouneva, David O, and Doug Cooney.
