About a dozen HMS students worked with HMS teachers Elise MacDonald and Diego Sharon last spring on a music recording project for Projects Block.
The CD was recorded and engineered by HMS alum and musician extraordinare Ben Martel (HMS '03). Ben gained a lot of expertise in the technical side of studio work through recording and producing a CD of his own original tunes, "Benjamin's Independent Release", which is available for purchase through CD Baby (see the links section in the left hand margin).
The personnel were Sophie Abrahams-Dematte ('08), Michiko Takahashi ('08), Henry Lewers ('08), Townsend Gregg ('06), Mia Govoni ('08), Jesse Cornelisse ('08), Guen Soo Park ('06), Jory Goodman (Souhegan '08), Dan Roaman ('08), Scott Baker ('07), with engineering assistance from Jesse Mastroieni ('08).

The CD from the Project is available for sale ($10) in the HMS school store or can be ordered via mail for $15 (shipping included; contact Elise for more information). The CD includes everything from originals to covers, from rock to Broadway to classical to bluegrass to Japanese pop!
Preview tracks may be found on the archive page, by visiting the "student musicians" box in the left hand margin and clicking on the 2006 Projects Block Link.
