11. september sá ég íkornaunga myrtan af stórum íkorna, svo byrjaði ég í skólanum.

Skólinn leggst vel í mig barasta. Fyrir utan söngtímann og tímana í tónheyrn og hljómfræði er ég í eftirfarandi fögum:

Groove Writing
Berklee College of Music > Professional Writing Division > Contemporary Writing & Production
Credits: 2.00 Instructor: Jeffrey Perry
Description : Expanding on the material introduced in AR-111 Arranging 1, this course focuses on creating and writing grooves for the rhythm section (guitar, keyboard, bass, percussion, and drums) and the ways in which different grooves work together. Original techniques and practical approaches to creating grooves will be presented, as well as methods to refine and create variations in grooves and scoring with production goals in mind. Styles studied include funk, hip-hop, rock, reggae, and ska; Latin styles, including bossa, samba, salsa, cha-cha-cha, songo, and baion; shuffle, as used in rock, blues, and funk; generic dance grooves such as techno; and pop and Euro-pop. Projects will include transcription, sequencing, and live performance of grooves.



College Writing 2: Lit Themes
Berklee College of Music > Professional Education Division > Liberal Arts
Credits: 3.00 Instructor: Pratt Bennet

Description : This course reinforces the principles and practices of LCOR-111 College Writing 1: Structure and Styles, emphasizing critical and creative thinking through literary analysis and creative writing projects. Students will apply the skills of synthesis, interpretation, and evaluation in writing and speaking about fiction, drama, poetry and creative nonfiction. Basic concepts of literary analysis will be introduced (e.g., plot, point of view, character tone, style). Students will demonstrate an understanding of these concepts in frequent and substantial writing assignments.



Vocal Improv in Jazz Idiom
Berklee College of Music > Professional Performance Division > Voice
Credits: 2.00 Instructor: Robert Stoloff

Description : Syllabic pitch and rhythmic exercises for the voice and application to a variety of styles. Analysis of various recording artists, including Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Al Jarreau, Mark Murphy, and others. Assigned student projects.

The Music of Guinea
Berklee College of Music > Professional Performance Division > Percussion
Credits: 2.00 Instructor: Mohammed Kamara

Description : A comprehensive study of the music from Guinea, West Aftrica for non-percussionists. Study concepts integral to African performance traditions include polyrhythms, polymeters, and part-playing. Emphasis on the relationship between song, drumming, and dance in African culture. Musical genres of study are selected from the Susu, Malinke, and Baga ethnic groups. Authentic instruments will be provided for in-class performance.

Og svo ætla ég að sjá sjálfan Bob Dylan þann 12. nóvember. Þetta er að verða ágætis önn tónleikalega séð. Ég er ekki búin að kaupa miða á Scofield og ekki á Rosenwinkel og ekki á Arethu Franklin...
