Schooltime: Origin Stories

Jan 25, 2022 - Jan 25, 2022 | 10:30 am - 12:00 pm
Virtual Event by the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra

How did we come to be here? Join us for a musical journey inspired by ancient understandings of how people, our world, and the universe came to be. Drawing on origin stories from the Jewish, Greek, Mayan, and Igbo peoples, Origin Stories invites students to discover how composers express wonder and awe through the music they compose, consider how instrumentation choices bring stories to life, and experience how art provokes reflection on our own origin stories.

Schooltime: Origin Stories will be available online January 25-June 30, 2022. Registration required

This online education unit includes a PSO concert video, behind-the-scenes footage with artist Mikael Owunna, and cross-curricular resources to learn more about each featured origin story.
