Sept 30 - Headed to the airport in MSP

I leave for Minneapolis in 4 hours.  Unfortunately I have about 8 hours left of work to do.  Since I don't know what they think I should be teaching, I decided that my best bet would be to bring them something they don't have.  My choice?  YouTube videos!  There are marvelous examples of just about any kind of music in history or around the world!  I've been collecting everything from clips of sacred harp to Beethoven's 9th Symphony to didgeradoos from Australia and Chinese opera from Peking!  (My personal favorite?  Irish bagpipes!)  Driving to MSP today and flying out tomorrow.  The next 3 days will be quite an adventure.
