Apple Music will set up two Mac Labs at the AR Rahman-backed KM Music Conservatories (KMMC) based in Chennai and the upcoming campus in Mumbai.
The Mac Labs will teach students how to create music using Logic Pro X, Apple’s professional music creation app for the Mac.
Eddy Cue, senior vice-president of Internet Software and Services at Apple Inc, joined AR Rahman, Oscar-winning composer, producer, musician and founder of the KMMC, to announce Apple Music’s contribution to fund 10 full-time musical scholarships for students from underprivileged backgrounds
“Apple Music and the KM Music Conservatory share a deep love in discovering, sharing and nurturing musical talent and we’re proud to be supporting such an institution that is investing in the future arts and music community,” said Cue.
The KM Music Conservatory was founded by AR Rahman to teach and strengthen the art of Indian music. The institution also offers an education in Western music and music technology.
“Music is a healer for today’s world and we share the same affinity and love of music with Apple Music. The labs and scholarships at KMMC make an invaluable contribution to helping to develop the talents of tomorrow’s musicians and composers,” said Rahman.
