The Science of Sound

June 2nd, 2023


On a hot Friday in early June with student energy at Landmark running high, The Fourth Wall, part of Young Audiences of Massachusetts, delivered two enthralling presentations to our Elementary•Middle School students called The Science of Sound. Three talented performers, playing the flute and piccolo, bass trombone, and the vibraphone, and layering in movement helped to illustrate complex concepts such as sound waves, amplitude, timbre, frequency, hertz, vibration, octave, harmony, melody, and so much more. 

Using a digital oscilloscope, they were able to provide helpful visuals to provide important context to bring the invisibility of these sound waves to life.

The presentation was interactive, multi-sensory, enlightening, and fun. 

Thank you to the Held Family P'29 for making this and other cultural enrichment presentations for our Elementary•Middle School community possible.
