Applications of Music is a year-long course that explores multiple facets of performing arts including music in the media, music as a change agent, music as a cultural phenomenon, performance practices in music, and exploration of select instruments (guitar, drums, piano). This course rounds out the performing arts offerings (in addition to band, choir, orchestra) as the performance-based option for 7th and 8th grade students. Performance takes place in each unit in a formal or information presentation of their creation.
This course will be under revision during the 2021-2022 school year and will be added to for the 2022-2023 school year to become a two-year course to be taken by 7th and 8th grade students.
The course will be delivered through a variety of modalities including whole group, small group, and individual instruction. The content is housed and data is collected in Canvas.
