Music Program Description:
Ear Candy has teamed up with Teen Central in the Downtown Phoenix Library to launch a 10 week acoustic guitar after-school program which runs throughout Fall 2009. The program is designed to give the beginning guitarist an understanding of basic guitar technique and musical knowledge. By playing chords, developing note reading skills, and listening, students will develop a well-rounded approach to the discipline. Through individual practice and group performance a deeper understanding of the instrument and music will be achieved.
This program had two classes and meet every Monday from 4 PM until 6 PM. The program ran from 9/28/09 12/7/09. At the conclusion of the program the students had an opportunity to perform at the Ear Candy Emerging Artist Series on 12/18 at the Hard Rock Cafe in Downtown Phoenix.
Ear Candy has supported Teen Central by providing instruments for the youth to explore with since March 2009. To date, Teen Central has received the following instrument donations: Drum Set, Electric Guitar, 2 Acoustic Guitars, Bass Guitar, and a Keyboard.
