Curriculum

Introduction to Music Technology – Explore how technology enhances performance, composition, and recording. Learn music creation tools, home studio setup, and industry software (Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Ableton Live) with MIDI, while developing basic musicianship, keyboard skills, and academic writing.

Through weekly one-on-one lessons (1 x 30 min), students begin building proficiency and performance confidence. The focus is on developing individual style, creativity, and expression, forming the foundation for ongoing growth in later units.

Ensemble Collaboration – Build instrumental skills and repertoire through regular ensemble sessions. With a new group, prepare an extended set for live and recorded performance while refining technique, creativity, stage presence, and musicianship through tutor guidance, feedback, and peer critique.

Coming to JMC, I got exposed to lots of different genres. You become exposed to lots of different personalities as well, and lots of people who have different backgrounds... They have different musical tastes. So you have to learn to be adaptable, be fluid, and be direct and confident.
