Hi all,
My name is Martin Mahoney and I’m junior music major in Arts and Sciences. Music has been a big part of my life since a started taking piano lessons when I was four. I don’t play the piano much anymore; since high school I’ve mostly been interested in singing and writing music. Here at Cornell I am studying classical vocal performance and am a member of the Glee Club. I’ve also recently started taking classes in classical composition. I’m taking this course because up to this point most of my musical experience has been “analog”- I play, write and sing mostly acoustic music- and I want to see what digital tools can add to that. I also hope to eventually work in music, and knowing how contemporary music is put together digitally seems pretty important to know! If anyone needs a bass/baritone vocalist for anything (even outside this class) let me know, I’d be more than happy to help. I can play piano/ keyboard too if anyone needs it, but looking at the other posts I am a far less qualified pianist than a lot other people in this class. Anyway, looking forward to a great semester!
