Expressing yourself through your musical talents is one of the many aspects that Commercial  Music has to offer.

Commercial Music allows you to go out of your comfort zone in a performing light. They hold in-class performances after the assignments are completed, which expands your performing ability.

Mr. Ushino, even though new to SJHHS, has proven himself to his students with his helpful personality.

“He is very laid back and he’s the type of guy who is always willing to help you achieve what you want to achieve,” said Ben Hill (12), a student in commercial music.

Although Commercial Music is new to SJHHS it is definitely a course we have missed out on until now. This course goes in depth on how to work with other members and experience what it would be like to work in the music writing and recording industry.

“You learn a lot of stuff like how to write songs, how to work as a team, and it helps you become more confident in performing in front of people,” said Gabrielle Land (11), another student in commercial music.

Students enrolled in Commercial Music will earn elective credits towards graduating. Students should join this course if they are willing to express themselves through their talents in the arts and have a love for music.
