CMW brings music enrichment into school classrooms and  presents an original story created by Artistic Director, Barbara  McKenzie about Franz Joseph Haydn complete with original  compositions and interactive activities. Ms. McKenzie created  the project for third grade elementary students. The Story of  Papa Haydn, "The Boy who Sang for his Supper" is a true  account of Papa Haydn's life as a boy who struggled to  survive, was almost always hungry and cold and lived in a  choir boy training center in Vienna without his family from a  very early age until puberty. It is a story of courage and  fortitude and incredible character that will be inspirational to  kids of all ages.
