I have a Master of Music degree from Northwestern University and a Bachelor of Music degree from Juilliard. In addition to the fundamental music theory and aural skills curriculum required of every Juilliard music major, I have taken advanced coursework in analysis, counterpoint, and music cognition.
Homework Offered
I will assign a few exercises in composition and/or analysis each week. In general these should fit on one double-sided page and take between a half hour and an hour per week.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
I will give feedback and corrections on homework, dictations, and sight singing. We will not use letter grades.Grades Offered
I will provide all informational resources and exercises, so no textbook is required. In order to complete and submit homework and listening exersises, you will need either a printer and scanner/scanning application, or a device that allows you to annotate on .pdfs.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
