Class Description

Students will discover the joy of writing their own music by learning the fundamentals of musical structure. These fundamentals include creating motifs and melodic forms (sentences and periods), combining melody with accompaniment, and expanding a melody into a small form piece (binary or ternary).

Weekly assignments will be short, but by the end of the course students will have completed a full composition. In class, we will analyze each other's contributions and compositions by famous composers.

This course is for students who are very comfortable reading music and have played an instrument for at least two years. The textbook "Fundamentals of Musical Composition," by Schoenberg, will serve as a guideline and provide all materials. Any assignments or reading excerpts will be distributed in class, so there is no need to buy supplies.

Instructor's reviews

My daughter actually switched to the other section of this class... 3rd-5th Grade, so I don't want to give this teacher a bad review but she had started in this section (K-2), so that's the review I was sent.

Overall, I found this class to be very disappointing. It was listed as a class taught by a Disney Princess and the class ended up having 3 different teachers during the course. This was confusing for the students and didn't offer any cohesiveness. The teachers couldn't even remember the kids names. At the end of the semester, very few songs or dances were actually taught and the kids mostly played games during the hours of the class. The class isn't inexpensive, so for this, I wouldn't gone somewhere else to give my daughter a better experience and have her learn something.

Harry Potter Camp was so much fun! My girls loved making wands and creating potions...and thinking of mischievous ways to stir trouble at Hogwarts! The creative programming was wonderful for this outdoor day camp and kept my girls busy and having a great time. Their only request was that the day lasted longer! They came home and continued creating ideas to keep the magic going. Thank you!

I feel that this course is not tailored for K-1 grade. K-1 graders need more moving around, especially after a long day at school, then was made possible by the instructor.
