Welcome to Sibelius 7: The Music Notation Software at GHS
All of our 5 music workstations (2 practice rooms, ensemble room, band room and chorus room) utilize Sibelius 7. All of the band and pep music you play through your iPad comes via Sibelius. This software is industry standard for music notation. Professional composers in all styles and with varying needs utilize Sibelius to compose some of today's most recognizable music. I am including 2 videos to help introduce you to Sibelius 7 and urge you to take some time to play and learn about this incredibly powerful tool.

Creating a YouTube account for student or teacher use
YouTube can offer many opportunities for both students and teachers to share ideas, concepts, projects, lessons, and reinforcement in an easy to use, connected environment.
Videos created and uploaded to YouTube can be embedded in websites, blog posts, and linked in emails.
Every student and teacher has a YouTube account that is linked to your school gmail/google account.
You can control the privacy settings to allow your videos to be seen by the world or a handful of people you have carefully selected.

"If you already have a Google Account, then adding YouTube is very simple. Visit http://www.youtube.com, click Sign in in the top-right corner, and enter your Google Account login information. That’s it!
Using your Google Account, you can log into YouTube and access many features without setting up a Channel. Once logged in with your Google Account, you can like videos, subscribe to channels, and flag videos using just your Google Account. You can also add videos to Watch Later.
While you're logged in, YouTube will keep track of your viewing history, and use videos you’ve watched, videos you’ve liked, and your subscriptions to recommend other videos for you to enjoy.
If you'd like to upload your own video content, comment on your favorite videos, or create playlists, you'll need to create a Channel first."
