What colors do you see when you listen to music? Foothill's fourth-grade had the opportunity to see the many brilliant colors created by the Utah Symphony. Conductor Valdimir Kulenovic instructed the students to envision music in terms of color. They could see relaxing blue when the Symphony performed Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake.” We were taught that music is full of imagery. While the Symphony played we mentally saw red, blue, fireworks, frightening twists and turns on an adventure, and even a possible Calvary charge in Rossini's, “William Tell Overture.” Thank you Utah Symphony for inviting our fourth-grade to such a wonderful performance!
