Digital Orchestra makes music beautiful
With the help of young, passionate and dedicated
musicians pursuing instrumental lessons I was able to craft an artistic
cohort. It all begun when I decided to bring them together and form the only
one of its kind, the Digital Orchestra, a band of Ipads. With the progression
of technology and students getting practical experience of the most up-to-date
equipments, I introduced the Ipad with an eye towards advancing digital
music. My young maestros use Garage band on the Ipad to play and perform live
on stage. They use sampled instruments consisting of brass, woodwind,
percussion and the string family to create a wide arrangement of sounds. Our
first debut was Coldplay’s – Paradise where for the first time we had the
Western Choir perform together with the Orchestra. Since then all members of
the Digital orchestra play the same device with different instruments on each
Ipad such as electronic helix, cello, violin, guitars, piano and performed
in occasions such as Award Ceremonies, Grand Parents Day and Founders’ Day
2013.
