Music General

James AnthonyDecember 4, 2017October 23, 2020

Rock, Pop, Funk, Reggae, EDM and Hip Hop genres over the last 50 years have all made appearances in the Top 40 of the day.  This semester long course not only explores how to deconstruct a hit song but teaches students how easy it can be to learn to play lots of songs with just a few chords.  Boys will not only play typical Rock/Pop instruments such as Guitars, Bass, Keyboards and Drums but they will be also creating and recording songs.  Using the latest software applications such as Garageband, Audacity and Pro-Tools, boys will also gain experience with recording hardware such as USB digital audio interfaces.  No previous skills are necessary, just an open-mind and a willingness to explore Music.
