The Dancing Tree has recently published an audio CD entitled "Music by the Children of Ala Costa" which is the culmination of a twelve week Dancing Tree workshop series at the Ala Costa Center for Autistic Children. The goals and objectives explored in the workshop included: developing rhythm and sequence concepts, developing dialogue and listening skills through mirroring, developing spatial and object concepts, improving motor skills, and ofcourse creating amazing soundscapes and music.

You can hear "Music by the Children of Ala Costa" frequently on WFMU-FM 91.1 , Jersey City, New Jersey and 90.1, Hudson Valley, New York. Listen to Jefferson on Sundays from 3 am to 6 am eastern time. Jefferson will be playing more of The Dancing Tree's music and sound collaborations in the near future. Visit us again soon for more information.

The CD's are available at Aquarius Records 1055 Valencia Street, San Francisco, CA.
