Today Andrew speaks with James Caswell, Janice Mah, and Jason Sinkus, who are vocal, string, and wind performance instructors at Canterbury High School in Ottawa, Canada. Canterbury is a specialized arts high school where students are given daily lessons in their artistic discipline and are expected to perform in extra-curricular music ensembles. We ask them what the situation has been in the last 18 months; how the regulations have affected music performance in the school; what challenges face current students; and what challenges are to the music program itself in the coming years.
