Let’s connect through music

Learn how to express yourself and connect with others through musical improvisation.

The members of Eastwinds show students how to harness their creativity by expressing and sharing their personal experiences through music. A Persian ney (flute) and daf (drum) player, a musical instrument inventor and didgeridoo virtuoso draw on their own diverse cultural and musical backgrounds to create a sound that is uniquely theirs. In this special program, teachers and students are given the tools to create and connect to each other through making music on the spot.
