Music in the Mountain’s Young Composers Project is a music composition program. This last school year, YCP partnered with South Yuba River Citizen’s League (SYRCL) learning about our watersheds, importance of river stewardship, environmental advocacy, and activism. Students journaled about their experiences and then, completely inspired, they composed original music based on their experiences. Their new music was then rehearsed and performed by professional musicians for a paying audience. Music in the Key of Science is a mini-documentary following the students on this amazing journey.
