ALPINE MUSIC ADVENTURE
"An excellent edu-tainment show for grades JK
to 6"
- Visually stimulating
- Interactive
- Time flexible (40-55 minutes)
- Educational and entertaining
- Curriculum focused
- Activity support materials
Alpine Music Adventure is a unique, colourful
and entertaining journey through the German and Swiss Alps. Deb captivates
students and teachers alike with virtuoso yodeling styles, cowbell ringing
and other traditional Swiss instruments. She uses songs, instruments,
costumes and story telling to demonstrate authentic Germanic music,
language and heritage.
Deb, an accomplished musician and guitar teacher, has
been a performer with the Kitchener-Waterloo Oktoberfest Schools Program
for more than 10 years. During her lively and fun school concerts, students
learn about and experience the cultures of Switzerland, Germany and
Austria.
Alpine Music Adventure is highly interactive
and includes lots of audience participation. Deb teaches children yodeling,
scheunkeling, the cowbells and the Bird Dance. They enjoy lively rhythms
of waltzes and polkas and singing along with their own colourful marching
band. This fun, musical experience is truly "Wunderbar!"
"On behalf of the staff and students at Preston Public,
I extend a very sincere thank-you for the excellent presentation
you made. I have seen many different performances in our
schools and yours ranks very, very highly. Schools who don't
take advantage of your talent are missing a great show.
Thanks again for a super job."
Preston Public School, Cambridge, ON
