Fine Arts Presentation

The presentations: Fred Penner (great singing Chris), storyteller and drummers, timelines were well connected to the three key questions: what was this artist as a person, what was this person like as an artist, and why was this artist important?  Highlights: "Fred Penner" - Chris singing the "sandwich" song. "Roy Vicker" - group chose a local artist and drumming while each person read about Roy Vickers. "Storytelling" - Totem Pole. Music - Interesting timeline.  Excellent work!!!

Derrick Miller and Chehalis drummers

I have a passion for singing and drumming my traditional songs.  In my seven years of singing, I composed five songs with the help of my professor, my best friends, my mom Wal'aat - English name Sue Alfred.  In addition, I love to listen to other Aboriginal singers and also LOVE Derrick Miller's song.  The attached video is a sample of traditional and contemporary singers.
