all-camp music video from mike block string camp released!
Earlier this month, over 200 participants from 13 countries joined 16 Faculty on Zoom for a week of activities and classes for the Mike Block String Camp ONLINE 2020 experience, and we are excited to share our remotely-collaborative music video that we filmed/edited during camp to commemorate our time together, and to pay tribute to our beloved friend/collaborator/teacher Emy Phelps, who passed away a few weeks before camp. We performed the Haitian song “Fey-O”, which Emy taught the MBSC vocal class in 2011, and we hope that this video helps continue the spreading of joy and love through music that was a hallmark of Emy’s life. This video includes 2020 MBSC Faculty Darol Anger, Natalie MacMaster, Casey Driessen, Hanneke Cassel, Natalie Haas, Joe K. Walsh, Trina Basu, Arun Ramamurthy, Lauren Rioux, Melissa Brun, Taylor Morris, Colin Cotter, and past teachers who knew Emy well: Kimber Ludiker, Clay Ross, and Jeremy Kittel.
