MUSIC TRACK

MUSIC TRACK CLASSES

Worship Team Development

Students will focus on practical aspects of building a worship team, managing rehearsals, and gaining experience leading and supporting, along with interaction with different ministry team members. 

Rhythm and Music Theory
The purpose of this course is to give each student a basic understanding of music theory within the context of worship and worship leadership. Music theory allows us to comprehend how music works, to better communicate musical ideas with fellow musicians, and to broaden our musical abilities by breaking apart the foundational components of music.

Songwriting and Music Production
Students will explore the fundamentals of songwriting and crafting techniques through practical application. With a strong emphasis on musicianship, students will learn the building blocks of rhythm, melody, and harmony as the class engages in the language of music. Students will practice writing their own songs as well as collaborating with others in small group breakouts.

Vocal Ensemble
We will be learning various songs in preparation for leading worship as events throughout the year.  The goal of vocal ensemble is learning how to sing specific harmony parts while working within a team structure.

Vocal Technique
The goal of this course is to encourage vocalists to sing with power, presence and purpose by helping them view the voice as a versatile and complex musical instrument.  Students will be equipped with the adequate musical knowledge, proper breathing, and vocal techniques needed in order to cultivate their gift and bring it to its full potential.
​
Acoustic Guitar
We will be covering the basics of acoustic guitar, from strumming to chord families, the Nashville Numbering system, and more.
