Read about the "DHC Challenge" Project (click here)

The "DHC Challenge" is the pilot project for a collaboration with harpist, soloist and educator, Robbin Gordon-Cartier. The project uses my harp concertos to support both community and learning by teaching them to harp ensembles and then performing them with community orchestras.

In this pilot project, Robbin's 41 harp students at the Cicely Tyson School of Performing Arts are studying my music and then performing 3 of my pieces for harp & orchestra in concert with the West Shore Symphony Orchestra Nov. 19, 2018. Learn more about the project in this post

Note confirmation for student's participation in this blog series: "I confirm that all the children at Cicely Tyson School of Performing Arts in these posts have signed photo/video releases from their parents. These releases cover having their stories, videos and photos shared as part of this project, including posts on Deborah Henson-Conant’s blog and website." - Robbin Gordon-Cartier, Professor of Harp, Cicely Tyson School of Performing and Fine Arts, East Orange, N.J.

Day #: Title of the Day

This is a MODULE (designated by grey).  It’s in the ROW that includes the image above.  BASIC TEXT FOR THE PROJECT goes here. You can also put this row above the main image, if it looks/reads better that way, and you can duplicate it for additional text sections and put them in different places on the page.

This is a separate ROW (i.e. designated by GREEN).  Describe images/videos below in this module and duplicate it if you need more rows (like, if there are a lot of videos or images).  Each pair of videos or images are in a “row” and those rows are set up for 2-columns, so you can only add this one-column text by copying this row (versus just a text ‘module’) and then you need to place this row – between the two-column rows that have images/videos in them. Images can be uploaded to WordPress and inserted directly.  But Videos need to be uploaded to vimeo first, named appropriately (i.e. consistently with this project), and then you insert the URL of that video in the video module to display it.

Information about the videos or images below goes here (note: the URL of the dummy-placeholder-video is https://vimeo.com/293369123 (it’s not easy to find in the wordpress interface and you may need it)
