Music Class

[Jay Vaughan]

> I may have mentioned this in a previous post, but I am slated to teach a kids after school program class on "making music with your computer".  Since schools are chuck full of Macs, I am going to base the class around GarageBand.  Kids will be from grades 3 to 6, one hour a week, for about 9 weeks.  I have some good ideas for the class material.  Basically I want the kids to be able to get a nice little introduction to music technology, with some tangible end results, notably creating and sharing some music.

All I can say is, let us know how it goes .. we'll learn too.  I'm quite sure.

Pity Nigel Kersten isn't around any more, he has quite a lot of experience with exactly this topic, maybe I'll hunt him down and invite him back to the -bar, where you can never leave ..
