MUSIC COMPOSITION:
In February 2019 Gr 5 composed music and wrote letters to John Debney, the composer for many movies and Disney attractions, including the World of Color show at WDW. We are hoping for a response. The videos provided inspiration for the students to create their own music for the show. Here are links: Notice how the music complements the movement of the lights and water.
