Five hundred students from across Ottawa joined forces with the National Art Centre's Rideau Lake Brass Quintet to help celebrate Music Monday and the start of NAC Orchestra Week. Music Monday is an annual event celebrated across Canada to promote music programs in school. The students' voices joined other communities all around the country as they all sung Luke Doucet's "Tomorrow is Coming" at the same time. Centretown News spoke with choir director Jackie Hawley and music teacher Cathy Wilcox about the importance of music for children.
