Apple Music and AR Rahman have partnered up and are in the process of setting up two Mac Labs, one in Chennai at the AR Rahman-backed KM Music Conservatories (KMMC) and another in Mumbai at an upcoming campus. Students will be taught how to use Logic Pro X, Apple's professional music creation app, at these labs.
AR Rahman was joined by Eddie Cue, a vice president at Apple, as they announced that Apple Music will also be contributing to fund 10 full time musical scholarships for underprivileged students.
This is a great step forward for the Oscar winning composer as well as Apple. KMMC, founded by AR Rahman is leading the strive towards education in Indian and western music to aspiring Indian students. Kudos to you, Isai Puyal!
