Days in the Arts Program Engages Middle-Schoolers Online
Days in the Arts at Tanglewood (DARTS), a summer camp that brings students from all walks of life together to learn, build confidence, and develop a shared appreciation and respect for individual interests, talents, and differences, took place online for a second season in 2021. The engaging video programs included modules on visual arts, dance, and music, such as a four-unit percussion session hosted by Luis Herrera and featuring Miles Salerni (shown here). The pair discussed the importance of rhythm as a fundamental of music, showing how musicians can often improvise what they are playing to create interesting combinations of sound.
