In this Music Performance module, the students get the opportunity to write and record their own songs. Their creativity comes alive as they create a music backdrop, write lyrics and record vocals. In small groups they get hands on experience with different equipment including an MPC sampler and Technic turntables. They are also given practical advice about getting gigs, building relationships, and making money in music.
