DANZA DEL COQUÍ
As part of one of his ingenious music projects, the energetic and professional Fabián Rivera integrated recording technology, cultural appreciation, and music into his classroom. Fabián worked closely with his 4th graders at the CITL Recording Studio to produce their musical masterpiece, “La danza del coquí,” based on the danza “El coquí” by Puerto Rican composer and pianist José Ignacio Quintón.
Their sweet rendition of the song not only is heartwarming but also demonstrates the essential role of music in our lives. In an email, Fabián explained the impact of this project on his students and expressed appreciation to the CITL for being able to use the Recording Studio: “The experience was extremely enriching for our 4th grade students who had the opportunity to work in a professional space and experience first hand the recording process for a piece of music. I want to express my sincerest thanks for your support and collaboration in this project.”
Through this activity, 4th graders discovered new possibilities with music and technology while using their talents to express themselves in unique and meaningful ways, exemplifying the transformative power of integrating music and arts into educational content.
We are beyond excited to showcase the dedication of these gifted students. We encourage you to view the video and experience the joy and creativity of Fabián and his 4th grade class.
