Breaking The Third Wall Through Music's Mission statement:
The mission of Breaking The Third Wall Through Music is to break the barriers between ableism and music, by bringing a wide range of musicians, regardless of disability, instrument, background, and field of interested across all genres to chat.
This week I had a friend, and colleague at both the high school and collegiate level, Cole Denton!
A little bit about Cole!:
" Cole Denton is a Music Education major and Vocal Performance major at the Crane School of Music at SUNY Potsdam. He has studied with Dr. Woods, Dr. Quodurah and is now a member of Professor Donald George studio.Cole enjoys performing with his rare voice as a countertenor in classical and also musical theatre. He also has the oppritunity to perform more popular styles of music singing as a member of the Potsdam Pointercounts. In his spare time he enjoys reading, singing and practicing piano. He hopes people will never forget that music is for everyone, without a doubt!
...
My confidence and more of a focus on what I can do even with my disability rather than what I can't allows me to surprise myself and do more than I ever thought I could. Because of this many people forget about my hand or don't always notice is right off. "
