Class Experience

Beginner - Advanced Level
Did you master your skills in The Legend of Zelda? Did you use an ocarina? 
Join this fun, relaxed class where we talk, play, perform, and create all with the ocarina. 

Calling all cosplay fans! Call all instrument performing fans! Calling all composers! Calling all puzzle lovers! Calling all video game script writers!

When it comes to the creativity behind the ocarina, the harp, and combining script writing an fashion design, this class will begin to bring the interdisciplinary world together.

This space is meant for instrument play so you can connect your skills with all of your other masters. You can play music you have learned, you can create your own melody. On the first day of class we will establish each of ours journey, and travel forward together.
Learning Goals
MU:Pr4.1.7a CONNECT Apply collaboratively-developed criteria for selecting music of contrasting styles for a program with a specific purpose/context and, after discussion, identify expressive qualities, technical challenges, and reasons for choices.
MU:Cr1.1.7a CREATE Generate rhythmic, melodic, and harmonic phrases and variations over harmonic accompaniments within AB, ABA, or theme and variation forms that convey expressive intent.
