On Tuesday, March 18th, Bigelow 6th graders enjoyed a one-of-a-kind education and virtual entertainment experience with Brent Daniels – award-winning composer, producer, sound designer and recording artist who uses the latest in music technology to sculpt sound and create music!

Using a digital sampling keyboard workstation, master-level musicianship, and a blend of audience participation, high energy music, information and humor, Brent creates an exciting, one-of-a-kind performance representing the STEAM educational approach, combining (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics).

Music Technology with Brent Daniels shows students the important relationship between the technology they have in their classrooms and the creation of the music and sounds they hear on their iPods and on TV, in movies and video games. Student volunteers participate in the program to help Brent create unique on-the-spot sounds and by the end of the show, an original song. A passionate advocate for education, Brent uses his Music Technology program as a vehicle for delivering an important message woven into the program: how important a student’s education, great study habits and positive decision-making are for one’s success in life and any career.
