The Grade 10 music class has been exploring the Unit Question: “How does music communicate cultural values?” They have been focusing on the music and culture of the Basque people both in the Basque Country of the Spanish-French border region and in Boise, Idaho. As a part of their studies, they took two trips to The Basque Center last week. They learned about the Basque History and culture of Boise, had a traditional Basque lunch, and played an exciting game of pelota. They also experienced Basque music and dance through a music workshop put on by some of the best local Basque musicians.
Thank you to The Basque Center for hosting us!
