The Many, Many, Many Sides of Yo-Yo Ma
Yo-Yo Ma is one of the greatest musicians of our time, and
also the most diverse and eclectic.
He has continued and extended the contributions of the very
best 20th and 21st century cellists through his performances
of classic and modern repertoire, and with his widespread
interest in other musical genres including pan-Asian,
Middle Eastern, Brazilian, jazz, bluegrass, and more.
In our eight-week exploration of his artistry we will open our
ears and hearts to his musical journey.

Music Theory Online
Free for All Students
Have you ever wondered how music is constructed, or why certain things sound better than
others? Do you want to understand more about the inner workings of music? In this 7-week
summer session, we will explore the different elements of music, including things such as
melody, harmony, rhythm, and others. You will learn about some aspects of music theory and
practice applying them to your own music. At the end of this session, you will have a better
understanding of how a composer creates their own music and develop strategies for listening to
music more critically.
Students will be split into two groups. Beginner Music Theory will discuss the major scale and
how its used with melody; and Intermediate will discuss how different types of scales can create different feelings and
moods. If you are unsure about your level, please reach out to the instructor, Ryan Striker at
ensembles@mcmusicschool.org. Students are also welcome to sit in both levels the first day to determine which level
best suits them.
