Units of Study:
- Film Score Composers: Students will learn about the process that goes into composing and recording film scores, while also studying the work of important film score composers today. Students will do an in-depth analysis of a scene from a movie and the impact its film score has on the story, characters, and audience. This will go into a presentation that students share with the class.
- Ternary Form Composition & Orchestration: Students will continue their study of composition, learning to compose melodies and chord progressions in major and minor keys. Students will create an orchestrated version of their composition using the Music Classroom MIDI Lab. Students use Sibelius and GarageBand to complete these projects.
- Guitar: Students will work individually and in small groups to continue their study of the guitar. Students will play more complex melodies using strings 1-5 and begin to play full chords.
