The following message is written by Christina Reinelt, a second year student majoring in Singer & Songwriter of the Professional Musician Department at SHOBI College of Music;

I joined SHOBI's Pro Musician Singing-Songwriting course with many half-finished songs I hadn't been able to finish on my own. One of the biggest challenges I was facing was playing and singing guitar at the same time. Within the first month, we were all singing our completed songs while accompanying ourselves on our chosen instruments. The monthly "First Step" auditions are always a great push to write a new song and get invaluable feedback. Everyone is so kind, the atmosphere is like a fun summer camp vibe, and I'm absolutely in love with it!
