January 26th, the 6th grade attended a music field trip, "Gershwin's Magic Key." The production was presented by the Wichita Symphony and told the story of a chance meeting on the streets of NYC between a poor newspaper boy and the great American composer, George Gershwin. The orchestra magically wove Gershwin's hits into a drama as the master composer shared stories about his life and musical passion. They explored the vast melting pot of American music and discovered the key to unlocking the boy's own musical potential. Special thanks to Babson Foundation for funding this wonderful experience!
