Platinum

PIANO – Platinum Intermediate - Advanced Package 

Welcome to the Platinum Package! This package focuses on preparing students for Grade 3 - 5 Piano, GCSE Music and also throws in some information you may need if you go on to study music at A Level and Degree Level, in preparation for that. You may wish to purchase a writing programme at this point, I would recommend the types of programmes that are used in A Level and Degree level courses, such as Logic Pro and Audacity.


 This course of lessons will help you with a huge number of vocations within music. We are looking at both popular and classical music, so that we are covering as much music as possible to prepare you for the music world. This course is for people that know they want to take music further or have an interest in studying music on a deeper level. 


In music, the work is always in the practice, what I am giving you in these lessons are the fundamentals, but much of our work has to be done outside of lessons to get the best results, I am therefore introducing you to ideas, for you to take and use in whichever way benefits your particular study of music. 


The package price is £242 for 6 weeks of 45 minute lessons.

PIANO – Gold Piano Intermediate Package

Welcome to the Gold, piano beginners’ package. Have you ever felt that you knew the basics on the piano, maybe you’ve been playing for a while, but that you wanted more in-depth knowledge, to understand how to incorporate both classical music theory and popular music theory, like the blues scales, how chords are built on scales and chords that you may not even be aware of right now? 


In the Silver package, we reviewed the basics, the circle of 5ths and how they all fit together, the keys that include the flats and the keys that include the sharps scales on either side of the circle of 5ths. We looked at some easy pieces to get you started, areas such as broken chords and inversions of all of your scales in the circle of 5ths. 


In this package, we are looking at taking that understanding further, with the aim of getting you to the next stage of playing the piano. As well as the aims within lessons that I have listed below, we also cover more on the physicality of playing the piano and making it easier for you to play the piano as we continue integrating your knowledge in aural training, finger and wrist exercises, music theory understanding and becoming a musical detective to make it easier to sight-read. 


We even start to cover improvisation in this package and prepare you for some more advanced playing if you going for grades, or if you are preparing for an audition. You may even be writing music and want some useful information for this – we cover everything you need to set you on the right path and lead you to having a thorough knowledge of music of all types of music, to inspire you in your own playing and music-based  projects. 


The package price is £182 for 6 weeks of 60 minute lessons.

Silver

PIANO – Silver Piano Beginners’ Package

Welcome to the Silver, piano beginners’ package. Have you ever been bored of playing through the same old pieces again and again for grades or pre-grades? Or just learnt classical pieces or pop?


Or maybe you have felt that you are bored with lessons and you don’t feel like you are progressing quickly enough? Perhaps you wanted the skills to be able to write music as well as be able to interpret it and ‘hear’ what’s happening in the songs and pieces of music you love so that you too, can use this in your own writing?


Well, I wanted to re-address this balance and create a programme that not only allows you to go on and do grades if that’s what you choose to do, but is fun and enjoyable, giving you access to loads of different aspects of learning music. I wanted to create an interactive approach, I found that learners seemed bored with the same old programmes and I wanted to create something that meant learning things quickly, easily and yet thoroughly. 


If you want to go on after these packages and go through your grades, we can do that easily but when you go in for your music grades, you are going to have a whole pile of background information such as how chords are put together, your scales and why they are important for your progress in truly understanding music. Learning that is going to make it so easy for you to pass grades with flying colours. 


There are 3 packages in the learning series. Silver, Gold and Platinum so you can immerse yourself in learning the piano. A big part of this method of learning, is that much needed theory which is going to be fundamental for your understanding of music and for speeding up your progress. 


Each package builds on the next, so you won’t miss out on vital knowledge that’s going to give you the edge when it comes to learning music. I’ve combined my years of teaching experience here with the best recommended apps and music programmes to give the learner the most interactive experience possible. 


The package price is £122 for 6 weeks of 30 minute lessons.
