Class Experience
Beginner - Advanced Level
In this class, we will learn the building blocks of music theory & composition. Basic notation values, instrumentation, and how to correctly write music will be covered in this class. Questions are welcome both before, during & after class. While learners do not need to have access to an instrument for this class, if they wish to play a song they have written, it would be beneficial to have the instrument ready for class. Other topics can be covered on request. Since this is a 1:1 class, all curriculum will be learner-directed. Any level from beginner to advanced is welcome. I also specialize in preparation for RCM exams, and high school and/or university entrance exams/auditions.
Learning Goals
Learners will gain knowledge of the building blocks of music - key signatures, time signatures, notation, rhythm, composition, etc.
