Program Description
The Junkman -the ORIGINAL recycled materials percussionist! - and his music-based residency teaches students how to make their own musical instruments and then perform their own musical composition at a closing concert. Each class in the school will be assigned a material (such as wood or metal). The members of each class and parents then comb their houses and garages looking for objects made from their assigned material. These materials are then brought into the respective classrooms. The Junkman™ then works with each class to make instruments or sound-producing objects and then to make a music composition for their instruments. The materials, instruments and the music compositions of each class will be totally unique to that class. Every program The Junkman offers features 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.
