Discover the Melodies micro bite:
It may be that your class sings while they write the libretto!! That is wonderful and it does happen! I am sure you will find this to be the case in your class. Do you have a digital recorder? If you do, take time to record the class as they create! The music mentor will find these gems to be more authentic than what they might be on a scheduled singing day as they retrieve the students’ melodies.
It takes at least two weeks for the music to be generated once the melodies the students create are recorded by the music mentor. It may take more depending on how many operas she is working on at the time your students’ melodies are collected. Please plan your performances with that in mind. There still needs to be time for the casting and staging micro bites!
