Program Description
Electrify Your Strings! (EYS) is a music education phenomenon that FIRES UP students, teachers, and local communities by injecting a high voltage dose of energy into a school's music education program. This intensive experience boosts student self-esteem and motivation, and increases school-wide, family and community engagement. EYS was created by international recording artist, TSO founding member, electric violinist, and music education advocate Mark Wood. The true leader in his field, Mark introduces your students to a whole new world of string playing and gives them a life-changing experience they will never forget! EYS changes their perception of what their instruments are capable of and enlightens them as to how they can access and express their creativity through them. In our Evening With Mark Wood program, the day includes a 90 minute workshop with students followed by an evening (or afternoon) concert. The workshop/rehearsal portion focuses on rehearsing the rock inspired material we've provided to you; encouraging students to relate to the music as more than simply dots on the page; and teaching performance techniques - how to connect with the audience, and most importantly how to access their own creative potential. The concert is a one-man, multi-media show where the students play the final song with Mark.
