Orchestra
|
The Lawton Chiles Middle Academy Orchestra has been under the direction of Christina Baker since 2002. During that time the program has flourished in both size and quality while becoming a superior program that continually strives towards excellence. Students participating in this program learn about team work, problem solving, and the fundamentals necessary to become a skilled string player. Mrs. Baker fosters an environment that encourages students to perform to the best of their ability, and that the work and effort put into practicing, studying, and playing directly relates to their success and scores obtained in All County, All State, Solo & Ensemble, and Music Performance Assessment competitions. Orchestra provides many performance venues and community service events such as our Winter and Spring concerts, Disney Performing Arts Concert, Feeder School concerts, Community Concerts, all while raising the importance of music awareness.

guitar
|
The LCMA guitar course is a year long endeavor that teaches the basics of music and the versatility of the guitar. Students participating in this course will play in group guitar settings, small ensembles and solo literature. We focus on playing music that has a global perspective and ranges from classical pieces to current day radio hits. After completion of this course students will be able to play chords, read music, play simple melodies and possess the skills necessary to continue their own pursuit of playing guitar.
