Ergonomics: As the skeletons "hold" a violin, bass, cello, and viola, string pedagogy class students see how bones, muscles, and tendons align. This fun and injury-preventing lesson in music-playing ergonomics was by Music Prof. Nancy Strelau and Brianne Oricchio — who is both the Nazareth Symphony Orchestra concertmaster and a fifth-year Nazareth physical therapy doctoral student — in Nazareth's physical therapy lab.
String students will be traveling to Nassau, Bahamas in Oct. 2018 to accompany the National Youth Choir of the Bahamas, performing the Cantata I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes by Aldophus Hailstork, and a couple of pieces by my late colleague and former student, Cleophas Adderley.
