Overview of my InquiryFor this inquiry, I plan to learn about arranging music. I have some experience with arranging music, but I hope that through this inquiry I can expand my knowledge of arranging music. I want to learn through this inquiry about arranging all of different styles of music, whether that be classical (violin) music, normal choir songs, or a Capella songs. I will start by learning about different types of online music notation programs, as when I have arranged music in the past, it has always been by hand. After I learn how to use the program, I will choose a style of music to arrange (ex: violin music) and then choose a song. If I do not have the sheet music to the song, I will figure out how to play the song by ear, using a piano that is available in the school or a piano app. Once I learn the melody, I will begin arranging the song by creating harmonies. As I arrange the song, I will use the music notation program to keep track of my musical decisions. After I have finished one song, I will choose another style of music to arrange and follow the same process.
