CBC Music Class 2023

November 24, 2023

Here we are entered for the CBC Music Class Competition! Each September, CBC Music in association with MusiCounts — the charity of the Juno Awards — launches a contest to engage music classes across the country with Canadian music. It’s called The Canadian Music Class Challenge.

Each year we pre-approve a list of Canadian songs, then ask music teachers to pick one and teach their classes a cover version. It could be a note-for-note cover, or you can make it something completely your own. Once a class performance of the song has been recorded on video, it gets uploaded to CBC Music. We post it on our YouTube channel, and three judges choose six winners. Each winner will receive a classroom recording kit valued at $5,000.

Thank you to Mrs. Arrafi, Mrs. Majewski, Mrs. Manyk, and Mr. Huntley for putting this together as a submission from ASIA Sumas. Fingers crossed we are considered!
