Georgia Perimeter College hosted a Leap Day Concert on February 29, featuring the One Voice Choir of the Global Village School.
The school provides an enriched education to teenage girls whose formal education has been interrupted by war and refugee camp experiences. Music is an important part of the GVS innovative curriculum, and the One Voice Chorus reflects both the diversity of the student population and the effectiveness of music as a tool for learning English as well as Science, Math and Social Studies.
At the Leap Day Georgia Perimeter College Concert, the choir sang the Haka Chin (Burmese) song “Fimnak” (Wisdom), a Chinese Proverb set to music, Woody Guthrie’s “This Land is Your Land,” Jon Fromer’s “Peace of the Mountain,” and original GVS songs such as “English is Weird,” written with Artist-in-Residence Elise Witt, the director of the GVS One Voice Chorus.
