Year 10 Option Music
Year 10 Option Music is a full year course which focuses on developing students into well rounded musicians, and preparing them to take music into the senior years. Students will give performances either on instruments or voice, both in small groups and as soloists. They will have the opportunity to compose music in a variety of styles and learn to use musical notation and MIDI sequencing software. Students will learn to recognise the ways in which music has changed over time and will also spend time developing their theory and aural skills. Note: Students must be learning an instrument outside of class (either in group itinerant music lessons at school, or privately).
