Class Experience

The teacher will facilitate students working together to decide on various factors to create an original composition! For instance, students may decide the piece should sound like a knight going into battle, or leaves gently swirling in the breeze (or some combination of these ideas!) Students might decide they would like the piece to tell a musical story about visiting the county fair, meeting a magical unicorn, or riding in a horse race! The sky is the limit and each and every class will be unique! The teacher will play various sounding chords, melodies, and musical ideas, and students will choose which ones suit how they would like the piece to be. Students will be able to hear the music come to fruition as the class proceeds, and will see how different decisions make the music sound different.
