Plans for next year

My plan for next year is to successfully get through the year of the music business course whilst simultaneously working on my own music and earning money at the same time by having a part time job. Specifically with the course, my goal is to gain a different perspective of music in the business side of it and learn how to grow other artists as well as my self in the industry. When I finish my 2nd year of college in which I plan to get a distinction, as I get through the years of studying music business I will be performing and going to studio to release my album during the years of university and the techniques that I learn during the music business course I will apply on my own musical career such as promoting music and also creating my own business to seek for other talented artists that have potential in a career in music.

The steps I will take to achieve my goals is clearly related to working hard and working smart. One example is to continue songwriting and writing my music to eventually release an album and promote it. One thing that is also really important in my goals is to keep active online so I can keep people aware of what I release etc. I also plan to release a music video next year which has nothing to do with my album but I plan to release a single just to keep my social media active so then people are excited to hear the album which will be released in the following year.

Solo performance week four

 Throughout the week I have been practising songs that I am planning to use in my performance in January. I have been using dynamics and techniques in my songs to make sure they all have a difference in terms of tempo, tone and dynamics.  In my performance in January I will be doing a couple of original songs using piano which I will show a lot of dynamics not just on my vocal performance but also on my piano playing.

In today’s class, I performed human nature by Michael Jackson with accompanied piano and me playing guitar however I think I will play the piano with all my songs to avoid any complications on stage.
