Digital Music Meets Dance through Residency Program

This past April, we told you about Boston Public Schools’ partnership with Boston Music Project, during which students worked alongside teaching artists to compose original music that shared their perspectives from the pandemic. Those collaborations led to two multi-movement digital music compositions, Caged Bird and Reflections, released on BMP’s SoundCloud channel on February 4, 2021. Since then, there has only been more collaborative composition. Young students from the group Urbanity Dance took the third track on Caged Bird, “Grace of Dreams,” and created an original performance art piece. The original works were presented as a part of the Urbanity Dance Gala in April 2021. Catch a video of their performance on BMP’s website.
