SCIENCE OF SOUND
Dive into sound energy and how it works with musical instruments, then explore a series of lab stations dealing with vibrations.
DACAMERA Music Encounters have been developed as part of an initiative that brings classical music and jazz into classrooms throughout Houston, connecting music with the core curriculum. The mission of the program is to establish creative learning environments that support the Texas Essential Knowledge Skills (TEKS) by promoting collaboration between artists, students and classroom teachers.
