The Hangout with David Sciarretta Claudia Lorenz and Travis Klein, Music Educators
Claudia Lorenz and Travis Klein are music educators at Albert Einstein Academies (AEA). Their influence and impact on students go far beyond just teaching music. They have both built their respective music programs from the ground up.
Claudia is a native of Austria and began as a parent volunteer with a guitar, teaching the German language through music and movement. This eventually led to a full-time teaching position where she now creates her own curriculum.
Travis is a professional musician outside of his teaching duties and began his teaching career at AEA with a set of instruments, an interest list of students with no band experience, and no dedicated space to house all of this. Through his hard work, the school now has a flourishing band program.
