Music Tech Class

What is this class all about?  

Students will be working at stations that have a computer and a midi keyboard (piano) and they will be learning how to create music.  Students use two cloud based applications - Noteflight Learn and Soundtrap for Education.  

Even students who know nothing about technology or music can find great success in this class! 

Below you will find some past and current projects!

Melody Project

In this project students had to create an original 40 measure melody that demonstrated the use of melody, harmony, and compositional techniques taught in class.  

"Students should take this class because you get to have fun while learning how to interact and make awesome music. They also get to work together, get feedback on their music and get to know each other better!"  ~Cole

Why should Platt students take this class?  

"Music, in my humble opinion, is an essential element to humanity.  It is its own language understood by all cultures.  It is heart and emotion.  It contains elements of math and science and language.  It is creative.  My hope is that this class gives students great joy and helps them become a more whole human being."  ~Ms. Hannahoe


"This class is fun, engaging, and interactive and well one of the better classes."  ~Milo Delcourt

"I didn't have very much experience with composing music and I wasn't sure If I would like this class at all, but at the end of the first day I was sure that I would love it and I was right! In this class you learn how to compose music really well and I've had so much fun trying out new things that I wouldn't have come across If I hadn't taken this class. I would totally recommend this class."  ~ Dakota
