Having never done Music in high school before this was a new experience for all Year 8 students. The introduction to music classes was exciting for all students as this was a chance to learn new things and express themselves through audio art.
It was important that students gained an understanding of the basic building blocks of music theory and notation, which is what the primary focus was throughout Term 1 and 2. Throughout Term 3 and 4 we expanded our knowledge and understanding of Music that was outside everyone's comfort zone, and this helped everyone gain a better perspective of Music outside of the world that we live in.
Students learnt to play a variety of sections in songs that range from modern pop to classical pieces via the iPad keyboards. With all things considered in this rollercoaster year, we had a successful year in music and hopefully Music can grow and expand within Irfan College in the near future.
