Description
This workshop was created in partnership with Lisa Zdechlik in the Music Department. We follow the outline provided by Professor Zdechlik to ensure that attendees have all the skills needed to complete their composition assignment for her class. This is a one hour demonstration aimed at students who are familiar with Finale, but need a refresher. This session is open to all UA students.
