Specialty Spotlight: Music

Hello Gillispie Families,

In the last few weeks, we have started sharing student compositions. This year we are using a new computer program called Soundtrap. Soundtrap is a digital audio workstation (DAW), similar to Garageband, which is created by the makers of Spotify. In previous years, students have created songs but there wasn’t an opportunity to share their original compositions with their peers. Since the format of specialty classes is different this year, we have been sharing our songs during class time. I have been pleasantly surprised by the quality of songs and I am excited about our students’ futures in composition. Our students continue to amaze me and I am extremely proud of them and their willingness to try something new.

Thanks,

Mr. Lewis, Music Teacher
