Studio Orchestra Week 10

This week I will have a new Journal notebook. I have read all your journals and given you a grade for the first half of the semester. Remember that your journals count 20 points toward your final grade, and you should have 1 entry per week.

We will continue to record our first song in both classes. MW class will alternate recording on Wednesdays and working on our original on Mondays. PLEASE come to class! There are lots of parts to record and I want you to be involved!

If you are interested in designing a cover for this semester's CD, start working on your ideas and show me ASAP.

Studio Orchestra This Week

I had to cancel classes last week due to a death in my family. I will return this week, and we will pick up where we left off. We will be planning out the next few weeks of recording and starting to work on our 2nd song.

Studio Orchestra Week 7

This week we will choose our first song to record. Come to class and make your vote count!

MW class has chosen Uprising by Muse. We will begin on Wednesday! Please meet in 419. We will track drums, bass, guitar and keys. Players please be on time or early! My goal will be to get a good drum track. If we get anything else it will be a bonus.
