Our students love making music. Unfortunately, the music that they are most familiar with is not often taught in the orchestra classroom. It is our goal to change that by electrifying our orchestras! Many popular groups and popular pop-orchestras use electrified instruments in their releases and it would energize our students to be able to have an opportunity to work with one and produce concerts that thrill and entertain our audiences! Students will learn how to imitate their favorite artists as they learn how electric instruments work, how to amplify themselves, and how to loop and record their playing and how effects pedals can alter their playing as well as create new and exciting sounds! The students have access to some electric instruments as well as pickups to electrify the instruments they are currently using, but we do not have the necessary accessories available to make them work! We need 1/4 cables to plug everything in. The G1Xon Guitar Multi-Effects Pedal gives students tons of effects they can choose from, and is very easy to program. The KB 3 Keyboard Amp is very versatile as it can switch to different watt settings and works well with all pitch ranges from bass to violin. The Ditto Looper Guitar Effects Pedal records short passages played on an instrument and plays them back in a repeating loop. Loops can be mixed together to create complex rhythms and harmonies from layers of simpler parts. Let's bring the 21st century into the Orchestra classroom and have our students working with technology and electrified instruments! We are asking the awesome supporters of classrooms here at DonorsChoose to help us in procure the equipment needed to make this goal a reality.
