SCHOHARIE - An exciting new course is being introduced this year at Schoharie Central School, a Music Technology class.

This course aligns with the objectives outlined in the Music Technology strand of the National Core Arts Standards. In this course, students are engaging in creating and editing their own music utilizing platforms such as Soundtrap and applications like GarageBand. Throughout the year students will work collaboratively with their classmates to compose and critique one another’s projects.

In the photo above, high school students are using Soundtrap to create a bass ostinato, a repeated pattern, that they’ll later incorporate into a larger musical work.

There are currently 10 students enrolled in the full-year course, which meets every other day.
