The Path to Creative Musical Expression

Help me give my students the tools needed to harness their creativity and freely improvise their own music in order to openly express their emotions through their instrument.

My Project

The Orchestra & Guitar program has been growing and improving exponentially year over year. However, our program suffered during the pandemic while all our students were at home and struggled to make music together.

The goal of this project is to provide audio hardware to our students in order to re-inspire them by fostering their own inert musical creativity as well as the expression of their inner musical voice.

The audio hardware will allow students to freely improvise their own music, record it and then continue to layer over it with various effects. This will allow students to create their own ensembles as well as lay down beats to play over.

The goal of the Orchestra and Guitar program is to provide an amazing musical experience for every student but also to create a family. Any assistance to our family would be greatly appreciated. Adding these pieces of audio hardware to our arsenal can drastically improve our group and improve the sound of the entire ensemble.
