Program Description
The Junkman - the ORIGINAL recycled materials percussionist! - has one main music goal: to instill in each student a love of music, as well as the awareness that everyone loves music because we all have the beat in our bodies (our heart). It is this commonality that what draws us to music, makes us want to dance, tap our feet and listen. A successful workshop means that each and every child leaves the room with an appreciation of rhythm and the experience of having performed as musicians. This will hopefully manifest the desire in each student to remain an active participant in making music. All the aspects of being a good team player are also discussed: awareness of others and their actions, follow the leader, listening, focus and proper performance manners. We also discuss and develop eco-chants for all the main topics of the Complete Environment: inclusiveness, water, energy, littering, less is more, change, footprint, respect, diversity, reuse, and the state of the earth. All The Junkman's programs include his HOP (Help Our Planet) environmental education program, which has won awards of excellence from the United Nations, the Federal Republic of Mexico, and the Governor of Vermont.
