How to Write a Song In an Hour -- Musical Self-Expression for Everyone

From 115.29 C$ /h

Everyone can sing, everyone can write music. It's all around us; it's a form of self-expression that we all have inside us, just like verbal communication and language. If we understand music, we can speak it as well. It's only a question of how to structure what's in us, and what tools we can use to express it.

learning how to make music work, and how to turn physical all the ideas that you have in mind when it comes to music, your voice is an extraordinary instrument and like the others needs to be studied. More than a vehicle to write your own work music theory will make you understand why and how music is made.

I followed a classical training for 13 years in clarinet and in lyrical singing for 5 years. I recently finished a 5-year training at the Paris Conservatory as a singer in contemporary music and I am now graduated from this training (jazz, soul, rnb, metal, rock, musical comedy, French song ...). This year I entered a Master of Music and Performance in London.
I move without problem and listen to the demand for songs to work.

I teach music theory equal to a-level.

The purpose of this course is to bring students closer to a conservatory experience, where learning is not limited to "how-to" tutorials and lectures. Through a series of lessons customised according to your needs, assignments, and working with me on tasks, you will develop a great load of skills in composition as well as a deep understanding of music theory.

Through ear training, tonal harmony, history of music, as well as structure and form courses, you will be able to analyse and appraise the music that you play as a classical instrumentalist, as well as boost your skills in composition and arrangement.

I'm a 25-year-old London-based musician with a first honours bachelor's degree in Popular Music Performance at ICMP & won Outstanding Student Award 2020 for my course.

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 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.

Looking for a vocal coach can be a very personal and sensitive journey, so I honour your courage.

There may be many reasons why you've found yourself here reading this right now. You may be seeking transformational skills to ignite your vocal range, vocal stamina and tonality, or you may be in search of a safe, encouraging, nurturing and judgement free space to build your confidence, find your voice, and maybe even face some fears that have held you back up to this point.

Wherever this little message may find you, working together will surely be a journey to remember.

Vocal coaching is always more than we think it is. Clients often find themselves discovering incredible untapped potential that has been buried deep down on the inside of them, hidden for years. Many have had enormous breakthrough, mentally and emotionally, there have even been a few happy tears.

Whatever comes up, its totally ok, we're in this together! :-)

Love and blessings,

Stacey,

Your cheerleader of vocal breakthrough

.......Ana is also passionate about teaching. She was the baroque strings coach at the inaugural edition of the Novi Sad Baroque Academy, where she presented a mixture of teaching methods incorporated with historically informed performance practice. In October of 2021 she joined the Herne Hill Music Studio in London as one of their tutors. She enjoys teaching students of all levels and ages, and is always willing to exchange knowledge, seeking new exciting and productive ways of learning. She has explored educational psychology, as well as Feldenkrais and Alexander Technique, visualization and different teaching schools. Having studied 2nd-study piano at her music college as a compulsory requirement, she is able to guide children to take ABRSM graded piano music exams too. The students’ happiness, acquisition of new knowledge and musical improvement are the most important things to her. Diana Cummings, the LRAM programme supervisor at the Royal Academy of Music in London, said: “Ana gave a detailed and very well-presented analysis of the baroque viola, the comparison with modern viola and how it could be taught. You have a very analytical mind and think through all the elements of teaching effectively and constructively. You are a most promising teacher, and you are exploring your potential with great enthusiasm. Well done.” ...

My voice lessons are ideal for all abilities and age ranges from 6+, from beginners who have never sung before, to those with lots of experience looking to learn new technique and repertoire. I specialise in Musical Theatre singing, and teach other genres such as pop and classical.

About me: I am a professional singer with a Masters degree in Musical Theatre from the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, and a Music and German degree from Maynooth University. I have been teaching singing for 7 years with various music and stage schools, including working on productions with British Youth Music Theatre and Damsel Productions.

My name is Bar,

I am a producer, multi instrumentalist, songwriter and sound engineer based in London.
I teach various subjects depending on the student's interests and needs, often curating a program made up of more than one subject.

An alumnus of the Abbey Road Institute, I teach music production skills including recording, mixing, music theory, composition and more. I will start by gauging your knowledge and interests and order to deliver you exactly what you're looking for.

Among other things, I cover:

*How to get a great vocal sound
*How to choose and place a microphone to get the sound you're after.
*How to arrange and mix your song to sound clear and powerful
*How to use digital audio software (DAW) like Logic Pro and Pro Tools
*How to utilize music theory in everything you do.
*How to properly use music production tools like Equalizers, Compressors and effect processors.
*How to achieve a sense of depth and width in your mixes.
*How to analyze a reference track
*How to work with artists and musicians.

Reach out and let me know what you'd like to learn.

Pablo is an experienced, award-winner music teacher, performer and composer based in London. He has earned a diploma in Contemporary Music from Newpark Music Centre, furthered his studies at the Royal Irish Academy of Music, and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, where he earned a Bachelor's Degree with honours of the first class in composition, and is currently completing a Masters Degree at the Royal Academy of Music.

Whether you are studying for a music test, taking the grade exams for piano, or music theory, writing and recording your own music, or just want to play for fun, he can help you achieve your goals through his holistic approach to music, covering all that is relevant for you to succeed.

Pablo has been tutoring piano, music theory and composition both in schools and privately since 2016 in Ireland and Scotland, having experience teaching children and adults as they prepare for the ABRSM, Trinity, School of Rock and RIAM theory and piano performance exams across all grades, although he does not confine his teaching solely to the content of the exams and his students often find that preparing for them is a natural consequence of their studies. He has extensive experience as a music tutor, composer, accompanist and director having worked at Gordonstoun School as a musician in residence, and at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland as a musicianship tutor.

The lessons encompass a range of diverse methodologies and learning outcomes, always tailored to the specific pupil's needs. You will work together to build an appropriate path to your musical development, always considering performance as an important part of it. As an example, lessons could focus on performing Classical, Pop, Film, or Jazz music, or have a blended approach to reportoire covering a range of styles. They could also be more directed towards musicianship and theory, while he can offer guidance on composition and songwriting. For the younger pupils, he uses methods that will effectively elicit their best results by making the lessons enjoyable and fun, while nurturing their independent study habits.

Pablo has a high level of proficiency on music notation and production softwares such as Finale, Sibelius, Dorico, Cubase, and protools and he often uses them as part of his teaching, as well as offering specific advice on learning to navigate them.
