A firm grasp of the theory of musical harmony is essential for every musician, at every level. This is an important aspect of music education, regardless of specialisation (performer, composer, analyst). This course will not only give you a strong foundation in the construction and manipulation of harmony but also will help you apply this knowledge in various different scenarios.

Hello! Expect an always challenging approach, exciting and inspiring! I am an open-minded teacher with international and wide experience and repertoire. As performer I have recorded 10 CDs with international labels (such as Brilliant, Stradivarius and Sheva), played in many concerts in all Europe as soloist and chamber musician. As a composer I have also written the soundtrack for films and multimedia works. I am interested in the Historical Performance Practice and at my place you can find three ancient instruments, from 19th Century.

Music Producers and Sound Engineers, we use the expanded capabilities of studios to extend compositions into a device for arranging and composing (DAW: Logic Pro, ProTools, Ableton Live, OneStudio, Cubase, Reaper, Reason, etc). This has caused the recording studio to become a meta-instrument, to shape entire compositions. In my opinion, we are not any more composers of music, but we are composers of sound. As a music producer, not only the instrument played is decisive on the final result, but also the background elements, which can be heard or felt throughout the project, make such a big difference.

A holistic approach ensures that my students are encouraged and inspired to explore all aspects of music making from the very beginning.; active listening, improvisation, composition, ear training and rhythmic skills are used together to help to develop the whole musician and improve instrumental abilities. I have experience teaching a wide range of people from young beginners to older professionals, and aim to develop the confidence and skills of my students in a safe and inclusive environment. I am happy to work towards grade exams, personal musical goals, conservatoire auditions, original songs/compositions, identifying together which areas we want to develop and work on and providing the necessary tools and resources to further skills. Most of all, I provide a fun and enthusiastic learning environment to make lessons enjoyable for everyone! Lessons are available at my home in Hunslet or via Skype/Zoom. Teaching at your location will be at a higher rate based on distance and travel time. I am a Masters qualified professional musician who is currently a senior lecturer at Leeds Conservatoire, and also have 10 years experience teaching a variety of younger age groups through award wining organisations such as Symphony Hall Birmingham, Make The Paint Dance (Leeds) and NOFA. Prices and subject areas are flexible - please do feel free to get in touch! TESTIMONIALS "Really friendly and patient chap.

I believe music lessons can be a real joy and it is very important to me that my lessons inspire students to develop a passion for it! I approach all my students individually and build up lessons in compliance with their goals and needs. If your goal is to take exams (ABRSM, Trinity) or if you want to learn how to play your favourite song on piano I will make the piano transcriptions considering your level and technical ability. Piano and theory lessons up to grade 8 Preparing for ABRSM and Trinity exams Classical, pop, jazz

Nowadays a lot of music producers & and musicians work with production and recording software during the process of creating new sounds and tracks. For someone, who is not into music production yet or even in the basics of music theory, it's kind of almost impossible to get creative with this software and even get started. My name is Jorin, I'm 27 years old and studying "digital media" in Bremen, Germany. I'm playing different instruments like guitar and piano for more than 10 years and I started working with music production 8 years ago. My favorite software for this is Ableton Live Suite and my goal is to give beginners a smooth dive into the layout and the hundreds of opportunities within Ableton. I will show you how to create your own beats, with no plug-ins needed, how you record your voice, proceed with compressors, reverb, delay, EQ, and everything you can imagine in the world of sounds. Also, I will teach you how to record and mix your voice or your instruments. Classes will take place online at Zoom, Skype, or Teams - your choice :) Feel free to ask me further questions and stay safe! Jorin

This class is for aspiring pianists, both casual and serious, looking for an enjoyable experience in learning and developing new and existing skills. I adopt a fairly informal style of teaching and tutor people of all ages and playing abilities. The piano is an instrument to enjoy, and it's the journey through learning which should be most enjoyed and loved.

Pop Trombone! Is a class where you learn you play any song you want off the radio or television on your trombone or any other instrument you like. I will sit with you online and we will learn any song you like together. You will get first hand experience teaching yourself how to identify the style, key, chord structure, beat, bass line, melody and harmony. There will be marked improvement at the end of every lesson. Any song you choose, any style, any instrument. I specialise in brass instruments but will accept any and all.

Im an experienced DJ/Producer. If you want learn the skills to survive in the music industry then i will be happy to help people get there! I have much been making music technology since i was 12 years old, id like to help other people succeed as well as me.

Having many years of experience in playing violin, singing and creating music, I would like to encourage and help you doing the same. My approach is to provide you with practical tips and help you get unstuck on your artistic path. My methodology is to start with your exact problem or question of yours and then elaborate how we can work through it. Imagine it rather as a mentor/coach type of approach.

This class is for anyone interested in writing their own songs. The core of it will be week-by-week feedback sessions for a new song you are working on. I will be encouraging you to write a new song every week - this can be a finished song or just a snippet of an idea. Writing one song a week will not only motivate you to write more material, but it will also allow you to practise the craft of songwriting regularly and with many different types of songs and ideas. The feedback sessions will be very relaxed, discussing the positive aspects of your song, as well as looking at the things to improve on in order to take it to the next level. One of the most important things to me, is to tailor my class specifically to your needs and interests. For example, if you want to write pop songs, then we'll focus in that area particularly. Or if you want to write songs based on the guitar, piano etc, then again, we'll focus on this particularly. The main thing is that the class suits you. Also, in order to inspire you and supplement your songwriting skills, we will be studying lyrics from many different types of songs, taking a close look at what the lyric means and what makes it effective. This additional aspect of the class will help you develop a sharper understanding of lyric writing which you can then apply to your own songs.

Hello! :-) My name is Stefan and I shall be your teacher! :-D I have been a musician from a very young age, starting on electric guitar and loving to make awesome loud noises! ...Then around the age of fifteen, I started playing other instruments and singing and joining bands. I started to appreciate all forms of music and instruments and just wanted to play everything. I have performed in several different bands and produced a lot of music of various styles. I have a diploma and degree in music. I play guitar, bass, drums, violin, mandolin, piano and Chinese fiddle. I also sing and rap and write songs. I have been a music tutor and online English tutor in various forms over the last ten years. :-) I know what it's like to want to just express yourself and keep music fun! It's the most important part of it. It's why we all do it. To enjoy ourselves. So! That is what I aim for in my lessons. I like to let the student lead in what you want to learn, to embrace who you are and get the best out of you, whatever your instrument.

I’m very passionate about Music and especially Music theory and composition. Understanding how scales, intervals, chords and different musical elements work together to create what we understand as Music is very fascinating. If like me you are keen on theory and composition, join the class. You will see how the Music theory we learn translates into Music composition.
