Summer of Music Making 2020
Beatles with Strings - Ages 7 to 15
Monday, July 6 through Thursday, July 9
9:00 am - 10:00 am group meeting; individual coaching sessions in the morning hours
(each student receives 2 individual 15-minute sessions)
Students will learn songs from the Beatles' repertoire, while also developing basic improvisation skills, and learn how their part fits into an ensemble. Note reading, rhythmic, and ear training skills will be developed as we also brush up on technique. Students will develop relationships with their classmates and learn to play as a team. We will meet as a group for 1 hour each day. In addition, participants will receive two 15-minute private online coaching sessions and three short videos to help them learn and review the Beatles' songs learned in class. For our final project, each child will record their part of our ensemble pieces for a video collaboration!
Skills needed: Students must know how to play basic rhythms (quarter notes, eighth notes, sixteenth notes, half notes and dotted quarter notes) on all 4 strings. They must also know how to play 2 octave A Major and G Major scales and 1 octave arpeggios with a strong, clear sound.
Teaching Artist: Angela Thompson
Tuition: $95.00
Note: Classes will begin online. Students will need a device with a camera, microphone, speakers and internet connection.
