All the music classes are great! The Vocal Power class performed Harmony songs. They chose a song and then created harmony to enhance the song. Music 6 completed the rhythm unit and created compositions using iconic notation.The Digital Music Class has songs using environmental sounds and loop using Soundtrap for Education software. The Music Theater Workshop auditioned for Aladdin Jr, the class play. Stay tuned for more updates!
