The Shepherd School of Music’s annual Family Concert has been reimagined amid the COVID-19 pandemic as a series of interactive videos to teach children and their families about the joy of music.
Before the pandemic, the family-friendly event allowed attendees to meet students and see and hear their instruments up close, discover the variations in sound and personality of instrument families and learn about the science of acoustics. This year, in place of the concert, 15 Shepherd School students have prepared short video demonstrations of their woodwind, string, brass or percussion instruments.
Rachel Buchman, head of the Young Children’s Division of the Michael P. Hammond Preparatory Program, came up with the idea so families wouldn’t miss out.

Downton very early on (Kirk). They share their
Downton histories below.

Downton Abbey was returning to PBS and GPB, it felt like coming home again.
As of this publication date, Georgia, like the rest of the world, is still fighting the COVID-19 pandemic. There’s a lot of uncertainty in our lives and for some, that has involved seeking out comfort and stability in the familiar. Revisiting and bingeing old TV shows is not only a venture into a good (and often happy) story, our brains crave predictability.
