Featured Music: Somewhere Over the Rainbow

Performer: Sarah Vaughan

Listening Time: Approximately 4 minutes

What should I know about Sarah Vaughan?

While Sarah Vaughan, "The Divine One," reigned supreme in the realm of jazz, her impact on classical music resonated deeply. Her vocal virtuosity, a kaleidoscope of color and timbre, stretched beyond genre, inspiring operatic singers with its agility and jazz vocalists with its emotional resonance. Though she dreamt of opera stages, her path led her to bebop ensembles, but the classical influence lingered, evident in her flawless and meticulous phrasing. Vaughan's ability to breathe life into complex melodies, be it a Gershwin standard or a forgotten operatic aria, blurred the lines between genres, proving that musicality transcends labels and that pure vocal genius speaks a language understood by all.

What are Music Breaks?

Forget tedious prep – all you need is this musical treasure trove featuring SIX dynamic activities inspired by a captivating piece of classical music. No grading, no pressure, just pure exploration! These bite-sized activities are like time-traveling portals transporting students to the heart of Black musical history.
