2. Ms. Jimin Lee instructs Kimin Lee, Dongin Kwak, and Anastasia Kim on analyzing Bach’s Brandenburg Con-
certo No. 2 in F major. The DP Music HL students learned about the history of classical music. 3. Eric Shin and

loved the energetic atmosphere of choir class and used music to relieve stress. 4. Matthias Buesing brain-
storms ideas for his collaborative performance with Olena Vasyltova, Ben Kim, Aidan Schneider, and Sarah
Wilson. Their final performance was Cact-Eye, a comical piece featuring cacti, police departments, and a
pair of glasses. 5. As the core percussionist, Leo Chun plays “Conquest” on the snare drum. Mr. Jackson,
the band teacher, asked the students to play this song majestically and with enthusiasm. 6. In preparation
