Let's Write A Song
In this highly-participatory musical team building experience, students work together to create an original song through accessible and encouraging step-by-step instruction. For groups without musical experience, 60-min workshops will primarily focus on lyric writing and setting lyrics to a simple beat and melody. For groups with band or orchestral instrumental experience, extended 90-min workshops will continue deeper into composing melodies, harmonies, and a full-class arrangement of their song.
