Aaron Hodges He is in charge of music worship at church He went to college for music and composition Taught me how to compose the music we did and how to arrange it After hearing my story with my first facilitator, he immediately was willing to help He was a great joy to be around learn from

A CAPPELLA GROUP -Form an all vocal a cappella group - Perform a mini concert

Musical groups that are accompanied by instruments can rely on the instruments for proper key and pitch A Cappella groups rely solely on the singers and their voices I wanted to take on the task of putting a group together to sing only

Find my singers - Soprano - Alto - Tenor - Bass Schedule Practice Schedule Performance

Anna: Alto Corbin: Bass

Eden: Soprano

Kyler: Tenor/ Lead

Practicing

POMPEII- Bastille COUNTING STARS- OneRepublic

I was conducting and playing to give them their pitch

Me on the piano so the group could match pitches for their parts

Kyler rehearsing his parts At Kyler’s working with him to get his parts down

Anna At our first rehearsal

My biggest issues were getting people to be reliable My first facilitator stopped for a month before I decided to get a new one Time Management Also learning to read music again

I learned how to read music again I also learned how to compose music and write in my own pieces

No It was something I had to rely on too many people However I’ll probably do something with music

Great to learn if I wanted to do this as my future Fun I enjoyed the challenge
