---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Lauren Ornstein <laurenmadeline@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: Music in Common at ORT Sharet, Nazareth Illit-Deir Hanna High School Dear All, Another amazing day on the MiC tour, this time in the north where ORT Sharet, Nazareth Illit hosted Deir Hanna High School. We were all amazed at how quickly, from the start, the kids made the experience their own and led the way together. If they hadn't been wearing MiC "back stage passes" with their names, I'd have had a tough time knowing who was from each school as they immediately became one group. They instantly became "... the friends they never knew." (Tommy Sands) Following the icebreakers and brainstorming session on the theme, the participants broke into groups to try their hand at writing lyrics and music. Then back to the circle to share their thoughts, a shared lunch and another go in groups. Finally, a pow-wow and together the song came together, a fusion of rap pop rock, to be recorded tomorrow morning. Can't wait! I had an especially nice treat at the end of the day to meet over coffee in downtown Nazareth with a young teacher with whom I'd worked in the south a few years ago before he returned home to the north. Wonderful catching up and exchanging stories. And if all goes well, MiC will faciltate a workshop at his school in the near future.
