acePants (Jennifer Beattie – voice, Diana Wade – viola) for a sound and wonder-filled adventure to the moon. We’ll follow instructions from the NASA 1969 Saturn V Flight Manual, and with our musical imaginations and with your help we Burn for the Moon!
We’ll also perform “Fry on Fry”, where we read and sing music written in…french fries.
