The Secret of Haja - Maja |
| "Once upon a time ... Ó Maria Carlsson says and 50 red pencils move energetically over lined paper. The students' creativity is flowing, inner visions of dolls, large theatrical puppets, makes up a colorful, fantastic and exciting story. The reason for this is that a wind quintet plays Darius Milhaud's La Cheminée du roi René in the classroom. It´s obvious that classical music can release children's creativity - isn´t it?
The result was anyhow a wonderful Puppet Theater - Music - Show. |
