Music

The study of music’s forms, styles and ideas enables young people to develop an interest in appreciation and enjoyment of music. Through critical reflection and acquiring understanding, knowledge and skills, students respond by creatively developing their own musical ideas, compositions and performances.

What students will be doing in the course:

• Performing individually and in groups across a variety of musical styles

• Composing and arranging original pieces using instruments, voice, or digital tools

• Listening to, analysing, and reflecting on different forms and traditions of music

• Developing practical skills on instruments and in vocal performance

• Exploring music technology, recording, and digital composition
