Proposal: Music
Playing pieces of music of my Alto Saxophone
Needs and Opportunities
Are you solving a problem
for yourself or others? How will this project be a learning and growing
experience? What is your goal?
I am not solving a problem
for others. I will be learning new music and improving technical skills. My
goal is to know how to play at least 4 pieces of new music.
Audience / Clients / Users
Explain who will benefit
from your project. Who is you audience – who might be interested in following
your blog and learning about your project?
People that like music will benefit
from my project. People play the same or different instruments.
Mentors
Who can help you with this
project? Who will you need to contact and what will you ask them to commit to
in helping you?
My band teacher Mr. Wine and
other Saxophone players in school can help me. I would contact anyone available
and teach me the music.

What is your monthly
timeline for this project? I want to see a list of deliverables with deadlines.

Product
What is the actual product
you will show this spring? This project may or may not be made of atoms or
bits, but you must have something to show. I’m not interested seeing a bunch of
great ideas at the end of the year. I want to see things.
My final product is recordings
my performance and let everyone listen.
Technology
You will have to use
technology in some way on presentation day – think about how you can use the
tools available to add life into your project and enhance what you are doing.
(Video, laptops, apps, cell phones, music, etc.)
Laptop, Phone, Apps, Video
will be used.
Reality Check
I am looking for you to
shoot for the moon here and do anything you can dream of, but even moonshots
need budgets. What equipment are you going to need? What other capital
expenditures do you anticipate, and how will you meet them?
Equipment: Recording Device
(Phone), Laptop/Computer, Saxophone Skills. All possible.
Possible Roadblocks
What other roadblocks can
you predict – time, resources, motivation etc. Explain what you might do when
you come to each roadblock to reach your goal.
I might not have enough time
during the week days, no good music to play.
Conclusion
Wrap it up. Why are you
fired up about this project? Inspire me to support you, and give me a great
reason to approve your project.
I’m fired up because I love
playing music, and who doesn’t like music?
