Rhythmic skill
One of our most interesting units of inquiry last year was about how music is related to mathematics. This week we've been putting all that knowledge into practice by developing rhythmic skills, focused not only on personal skills but also how we can be a contribution to a team.
Cesar brings a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to our MET music program. Born and raised in Panama, Cesar began his musical studies in the Universidad de Panama and later in the Universidad de Costa Rica where he studied the trumpet as well as musical direction. In Costa Rica he taught music at a school and later became assistant professor at a university. Upon his return to Panama he designed a Program of Interpretative Arts at a local private school and founded the school’s first orchestra. He now directs the musical program at the MET, with the conviction that through the power of music he can enrich the soul, create beautiful sentiments and educate students to be focused and caring citizens of the world.
