Studio Orchestra Week 2

Hardly feels like week 2! Due to President's Day last week, the Monday night class meets for the first time this week.

We will be playing some blues in class this week. We'll start with a cover song, then if any of you write some blues lyrics, we'll make an original. Hopefully you are listening to some blues music, trying out the 12 bar form, learning the blues scale on your instrument and making up some licks.

Bring your Listening Assignment to class, we'll listen to a couple of songs at the beginning of each class.

Studio Orchestra Spring 2010

Welcome to Studio Orchestra! I hope you are ready for a fun semester. We will be playing music and listening to some of your favorite music every class. Please bookmark this page and check here every week. I will be posting some information about the class each week, along with some links you may find interesting.

What to bring:

Guitarists, bassists, keyboard players: bring your instruments, cables, picks. HCC has amps and I'll bring one or 2 of mine.

Drummers: Bring sticks! HCC has drums and cymbals, but not the best.

Singers and rappers: Bring your voice! We have PA system and mics.

Everyone else: Bring yourself! We'll find something for you to do.

You will also need a pen and a folder or binder to keep handouts and take notes. Good news: no textbook to buy!
