Music with the Shubert
Have you wanted to bring a Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra musician or famous choral composer and conductor to your classroom, but the distance or cost has been a hang-up? Through the Minnesota Shubert Center Distance Learning Program, these problems are no longer associated with high quality arts education. Through the use of IP Videoconferencing technology, master classes are now available to you free of cost and free of distance, just in time for the concert season.
Stay tuned for updates, as additional offerings may be added throughout the year. Please contact Melissa Ferlaak (612-465-0220 or melissa@mnshubert.org) at the Minnesota Shubert Center to schedule a session today! Space is limited and offerings are subject to change. If there is a particular area not listed that interests your school, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate your request.
About the Minnesota Shubert Center Arts Education and Technology Program
Using IP videoconferencing technologies, the Minnesota Shubert Center brings artists into classrooms throughout Minnesota, creating two-way interactive, real-time teaching environments. The Minnesota Shubert Center also prides itself on the flexibility of its programs, allowing teachers to plan sessions that are engaging and reach specific curricular objectives. Programming is scheduled when it is convenient for the participating school and does not have the high costs associated with conventional artistic residencies. In fact, these sessions are FREE OF COST to participants! In a limited number of cases we can even provide your school with the needed technology if you do not already have it.
