Beat Making and Composition
Ages 10+Prerequisites: Some previous experience on an instrument, basic computer navigation (mouse, keyboard)
Learn to create music from ground up! Students will start with the fundamentals of sound, acoustics, and human perception of sound. Students will compose their own music incorporating many different concepts including beat-making. form, music theory, arranging, and mixing as they move through the process of learning the technology and tools of music production. This is an all-encompassing class designed to help students think about music creation from a wholistic perspective and understand the process and steps of manifesting a musical idea into a fully-formed composition!
*Students will have supervised access to the internet during class.

Students arriving more than 25 minutes past the start time for their class will be marked absent and that absence will be counted toward the three absences policy.
