An Introduction to the Music Department

In order to help inform new and prospective Eaglebrook students about the Music Department, Wendi Melnik, Music Department Chair, thought a video project would be a personal and student centered way to help inform new students about the program. Current Eaglebrook music students wrote their own scripts for the videos, giving their perspective about how being a member of the music program has enriched their overall Eaglebrook experience. The videos now live on the Performing Arts page on the Eaglebrook website. The goal of the project was to help new students understand that they don't have to already be an accomplished music student in order to participate in the program; differentiated instruction is a central component in the Music Department, so all levels are welcome, from beginning to advanced. The members of the department hope that after watching the clips, new and prospective students will be more informed and feel less intimated about the program. They hope that students will feel more confident after listening to other boys talk about their own experience, to branch out when they arrive on campus and join one of the music offerings at Eaglebrook.
