Composing Music Course

What will I learn?

Open up your music power with our Making Music Course. It's made for music people who want to make their music better. You go deep into how to use different instruments and how to put them together, learning how to pick the right instruments and mix real-life sounds with computer sounds. You'll learn how to use things like speed changes and loud-and-soft to show feeling in your music. You'll also make your rhythms more interesting by using different beats at the same time and playing with time. You'll learn how to make songs and little pieces of songs that people remember. And you'll get better at using different chords and notes that don't always sound like they belong together. Join us and turn your music into something special!
