Music Composition, Improvisation Orchestration and Music Theory

From 31.66 C$ /h

I'm a Doctoral student of composition and besides composition I tutor students in theory, solfege, musical form analysis, improvisation, making arrangements, basic vocal training, orchestration etc.
Composing music is a special craft through which You can practically examine any theoretical knowledge. It's a synergy of many skills like harmony, rhythm, counterpoint, instrument knowledge, musical notation etc. If You want to create Your own music, learn how to improvise, get a feedback for Your each step from an experienced composer, then this course is for You. Music composition is knowing the structure of music, no matter what genre You are striving for. We can work on classical, jazz, pop music and any other style.

About Me

For Joseph Beuys “artist” was the word to describe the essence of what it means to be a human being: The deep need and fundamental ability to create and be creative.

I started teaching with a belief that everyone indeed has an artist inside themselves and wanted to prove that through my practice.

To all my students I want to share my experience from my music education process and fill in the gaps which I consider to be left out from the literature or not pointed out clearly enough. Music making and understanding should be a pleasant experience, no matter how complex it gets...

Piano lessons, classical repertoire, jazz standards, composing and improvising on the piano

31.66 C$ /h

Through my courses I will teach all levels of piano playing. My approach will consist of forming an individual repertoire according to each student's needs. In case that students want to integrate piano lessons with composing, that is also something I would strongly encourage, since piano is the most frequently used instrument for composing music.
