COMPOSING ZONE
O-Generator Composing Club
The Composing Club is an opportunity for those students who are keen to learn more about composing using O-Generator and other music technology. Students will be guided through KS2 and KS3 curriculum topics along the way. Topics are arranged in levels and students are encouraged to complete a level before moving on. As O-Generator is an online tool, an Education Music specialist from O-Music is able to tutor, guide, listen to students work remotely. For students it’s like having a music lesson or workshop accessible at their fingertips. It’s an ideal way to create and develop music ideas.
Students cover these musical areas.
- Rhythm & Pulse
- The Drum Kit
- Melody & Harmony
- Major and Minor Pentatonic Scales
- Syncopation
