Individual Music Theory & Aural Skills Lessons: Beginning Through Advanced
Class experience
Beginner - Advanced Level
Beginning lessons will cover the basics of Western musical notation and rhythm. No experience with music is required! We will start with rhythms and meter, and also incorporate note reading. If a student has a desire to learn a particular instrument, we will focus on skills needed to help support that study. For example, a student interested in viola may wish to spend these lessons learning to read alto clef fluently. A student interested in piano may want help with treble and bass clef....
This class is taught in English.
Beginning students will: -Learn to clap, speak, and compose basic rhythms -Learn about different meters, time signatures, & how to recognize them -Learn to read notes on a staff -Learn about key signatures Intermediate & Advanced students will: -Improve their ability to understand & analyze music -Improve their ability to perform & read rhythms -Compose four-part harmony -Learn to sight-sing and dictate music -Learn more skills, depending on level & goal
Homework Offered
I recommend that beginning students spend 5-10 minutes per day reviewing concepts we discussed in the previous week's lesson or practicing the skills. Time commitment for intermediate/advanced students will depend on their goals and level.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
