TOPICS Covered:

I Write The Songs (IWTS) - Musicals are stories driven by wonderful and effective songs (Music with Lyrics). Learn how a Song is written, and refined, and eventually performed. Hear local songwriters sing to you, share their passion and proficiency. Maybe even write a song "on the spot"!

Music and Machines (M&M) - Computers that make music-making so very easy, and enjoyable, and continuously improvable. Learn how your School can use Computers to transform the music environment, from arrangement to performance, and especially recording. And yes, write songs!
