The exploratory music class offers students a semester-long introduction to the various components and aspects of music making. Students will develop music literacy, performance skills, and a general knowledge of music from a global perspective.
Welcome to the wonderful world of music! My name is Mr. Fulleman and I will be acting as your tour guide around the globe as we take a look into the different music that makes us all unique and connected at the same time. I am a saxophone player traditionally, but I enjoy many different types of music. I can’t wait to learn more about you and the musician you are over the course of this semester!
