The Langley Schools Music Project: A Choir From Another Dimension?
Notas del episodio
A burned out music teacher with no plan. A room full of kids. And a record that sounds like nothing else on earth.
In this episode of Tape Spaghetti, Scott, Blake, and guest Nate Catanzarite discuss the Langley Schools Music Project, which started out as a classroom experiment and ended up as a captivating cult classic.
Frustrated with traditional lessons, teacher Hans Fenger let students choose songs they loved – including tunes by David Bowie and the Beach Boys – and learn them by ear, turning disengaged kids into a full-blown choir and band.

Here’s how a kids’ choir accidentally summoned something truly cosmic.
