En el Campamento de Música y Movimiento de Ondas Sonoras,  los estudiantes participarán cantando, improvisando, moviéndose y creando música de manera creativa y enfocada en niñxs. Basado en el método Orff-Schulwerk, esta es una pedagogía práctica de aprendizaje musical en la que los estudiantes interactúan con la música y entre ellos  a través de experiencias divertidas y a la vez artísticas. La directora Liz Caruso comparte que “los estudiantes aprenden música como si estuvieran aprendiendo un nuevo idioma. Durante sus años de formación, se benefician inmensamente de las experiencias en la creación y exploración de música experimental. Estas habilidades fundamentales se transfieren directamente a aprender a tocar instrumentos cuando son mayores”.
