Congratulations to the WHEELS 8th graders moving up to high school and the WHEELS high school seniors moving on to college! Band students helped everyone celebrate with their final two performances of the school year.

So proud of the WHEELS students that performed today at the National Jazz Museum in Harlem as part of the Jazz Power Initiative! They sang and danced original jazz music and standards with an all-star professional band! They have another performance on Tuesday evening at the United Palace.

Thank you to Inwood Art Works Culture Hub for including WHEELS students alongside professional musicians in the Inwood Music Festival!

Thank you to Luke Folger (a.k.a. Unigen) for visiting WHEELS last week and working with 3rd and 7th grade music students! He showed us how he composes and improvises using loops. He even recorded the 3rd graders playing various instruments, and then improvised using samples from those recordings.
