ABOUT THE TEACHER
Bridget Barkan is a teaching artist with Carnegie Hall's Music Connections. She has worked as a multidisciplinary artist as well as a Songwriting Coach and Vocal Coach with musicians of all ages. Her passion is sharing the art form of songwriting with children. She has worked with The Lullaby Project writing songs with mothers for their children in homeless shelters, prisons and high schools, and has led songwriting workshops with incarcerated youth in detention centers in Brooklyn and the Bronx. Bridget’s love of children and living in the magic of imagination led her to work at the Central Park Early Learning Center, a school for children with autism and special needs where she developed a music therapy curriculum. With an intuitive creative approach, Bridget brings her compassion and inner belief in the power of transformation to every song she writes. Music is healing and she wants to continue to share this medicine.

A few young songwriters will have the opportunity to record and share a song they’ve written with the rest of the class in our final session
