Laura Mesen, a Costa Rican native, spent about seven months in Wells County to learn about music therapy. She plans to take what she's learned and create a music therapy program in Costa Rica — the first of its kind in that country.
During her seven months at Bi-County, Mesen worked with clients both in groups and individually.
As part of her master's thesis, Mesen created "Dolce Crescendo," Italian for "sweet growth." Through the program, Mesen composed 59 songs to help children — including those without disabilities — with their motor, developmental and language skills. Four of her colleagues in Costa Rica orchestrated about 20 of the songs, including this one, “Es hora de marcharnos,” or
"It’s time to leave" in English.
Translated the song goes:
It’s time to finish
It’s time to leave
It was a great musical day
We sang, we danced
I hope to see you soon (child’s name)
And play, dance and sing
(arranged by Danilo Castro)
