COMPOSER/ARTIST REPORT OUTLINE
This project allows students to share their interests in music with others in class and gives them an opportunity to hear about the varied musical styles of today and throughout history, or to share a musical talent of their own.
I am screening any video or audio parts of the presentations. Songs with words must be brought in to me a week prior to their presentation date with a copy of all lyrics. Students may bring in CD's or other formats, but I cannot use YouTube or artist websites at school.
