On the 12th and 13th of March we had our music workshop. Daragh and Sean were the directors of the programme. It would consist of both writing and recording our own song that we had made and wrote ourselves. On the first day, it started with Daragh going around the room and asking all of us to contribute a song that we liked. We listened to all the songs and took a vote on what song we liked the most. The top 3 songs were:
after that and for the rest of day day we were split up into groups and given a newspaper and we had to pick out lines and phrases that we liked and wrote them down. By the end of the day we had the lyrics of our song fully written by ourselves.
On the second and final day we learned the background and science of sound. We learned about how sounds works. Following that it was time to start stringing our song together with all the different pieces, the music and the lyrics. This was all executed on a special device with a software they call Protools by the coordinators, Daragh and Sean. The different parts of the songs were pieced together. For those who wanted to sing, they were brought into a separate room and sing bits of a song and were recorded. Overall i really enjoyed the workshop and the song we wrote sounded really good and well written!
