What we will do

I will help my students understand the music in general in ways that will allow them to apply the knowledge to any style of music while performing, arranging, composing. We will mainly cover theory, technique, ear training using method books and songs.

I will give my students tips on how to use their musical ears, theory so you could learn and play songs by memorizing or by transcription and how to apply them on their instruments. Things we will be covering will help my students learn how to improvise, create or play existing melodies, chord changes, accompany lines.

I believe in order to understand music in general only knowing what your job as an instrument player isn't enough. If you know about what other instruments do in different styles of music you can get better understanding of how music should be performed, recorded, arranged, composed.

With all these said the lessons are for every body who is total beginner or not.

I love the word "play" in music so most important thing is to enjoy this beautiful journey!
