A.M.D.G. studio

Over the course of ten years, I developed a music technology-focused curriculum using the following equipment; which I purchased through judicious use of budget, solicitation of donations, and earned income from student performances.

A.M.D.G. records

Students enrolled in my Audio Production Techniques course would rehearse and record their own project recordings, which would then be released on the school label, A.M.D.G. Records.
