Creating Music Through Technology

A multi-year elective program at Carl Hayden Community High School
Creating Music Through Technology 1-2
This course is intended for students with little or no knowledge of music who wish to create music for themselves. Using a software program with a mixture of 1,000+ music “loops,” the student is able to create music. The student can also record “real instruments” and “software instruments” directly into the program. Using this software, students are capable of producing music for movies and podcasts as well as creating songs. This course offers the student the ability to create his/her own “garage band.”

Creating Music Through Technology 3-4
This course extends students’ knowledge and application of skills with music composition through technology. Students who wish to develop their music technology skills to a higher level to be better prepared for college level and career applications can do so by taking this course. This class will continue to develop students’ music creation, synthesis, and analysis skills through higher level music and technology manipulation, research assignments, and self evaluation.
