Met deze maatregelen kunnen middelbare scholieren straks weer naar school

Als 2 juni de middelbare scholen in Nederland weer opengaan, gaan die er heel anders uitzien. Deze week kwamen de VO-Raad en de onderwijsbonden met een protocol over de 'anderhalvemeterschool'. Het advies: gespreid naar school, anderhalve meter afstand en een dichte kantine.

NOS Stories dook in het protocol om uit te zoeken hoe zo'n middelbare school in coronatijden er dan precies uit gaat zien. In de video hieronder zie je hoe honderdduizenden middelbare scholieren over een paar weken weer naar school gaan - en wat de leerlingen daar eigenlijk zélf van vinden.

BEETHOVEN, L. van: Folk Songs (Bohnet, D. Johannsen, Klimbacher, Herzer, Christelbauer, B. Bartos) (8.574174)

George Thomson of Edinburgh, a notable promoter of Scottish music, encouraged settings of his nation’s folk songs. In particular, he found a rich source of arrangements in Vienna, where he commissioned first Haydn and then Beethoven to set a large sequence of poems, including those of Robert Burns and Sir Walter Scott. Thomson envisaged simple works, agreeable to amateurs, but Beethoven found it impossible to compose within such limitations and his settings, which include Irish and Welsh songs, with the accompaniment of strings and piano, have proved perennially popular.
