CSI electronic music lab
Staten Island Advance
Wednesday, November 26, 2003
 The
College of Staten Island yesterday hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony
for its new electronic music lab in its Center for the Arts. Ryan
Kelly, Miss Staten Island 2002 and Miss Gotham 2003, performed in
front of an original arrangement of Duke Ellington's "I'm Just a
Lucky So and So."
 The
creation of the lab, which took years of planning and an investment
of $50,000, signals the beginning of a new era for the school's
music program. Students will now have a hands-on education that
includes training on the latest audio technology, preparing them for
a wide variety of careers.
The lab consists of eight top of the line MIDI PC workstations, each
outfitted with professional quality software and hardware for
sophisticated uses in audio production, music theory, ear training
and electronic music composition.
