The teacher narrates the story while at the same time  conducting a musical performance of the students, who are, in effect,  providing the soundtrack for the story. In this way, the musical  interpretation of each student represents a specific aspect of the  story being told.<\/p>\n<p>The  chamber music groups also present specific musical pieces in the  presentation. These pieces are strictly musical ( i.e., no story  narrated ), however the pieces are always practised and developed  using images of Nature. Students studying a musical instrument may  perform as part of a group and\/or as soloists in the musical  presentation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OBJECTIVES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The  main objectives of the public presentation are for each student:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>to  overcome the fear of performing in public<\/li>\n<li>to develop a genuine connection between their internal world and the musical world<\/li>\n<li>to develop the ability to be physically, emotionally, and mentally present onstage<\/li>\n<li>to experience the stage as a magical space where music is the main  \tcharacter<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>PREPARATION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It  is very important that students are physically and mentally prepared  for the musical presentation in public. To this end, as part of the  rehearsals prior to the presentation, students engage in an exercise  in which they imagine themselves playing their instruments well. This  visualization exercise helps to give students the confidence and  peace of mind necessary for public performance. Physical relaxation  and concentration exercises are also important aspects of each  rehearsal, and should also be carried out at home. Such exercises are  necessary for the group or soloist to have the energy and expression  required for the presentation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GENERAL At the end of a cycle of group classes, the groups take part in a musical presentation in front of and audience.
