Ear Training + Music Theory & Harmony lessons at mine/yours/centres (in London) or online (worldwide)

Wanna write own songs? Learning how to listen to music helps you do it faster! And that is where theory & ear training come in.

Theory is just ideas musicians before us have found to sound cool, which they grouped for us to learn sooner than spending time discovering same ideas ourselves. Irrelevant of what instrument one plays, it helps us listen to our own & others’ ideas better & to find them on our instrument (an often forgotten fact is that music is NOT a visual but a listening art, which explains why theory is NOT sight-reading – one can know all the theory but not know how to read a note).

Convinced? I run 2 courses in music theory/harmony ….

  1. Know It Hear It! – practical hands-on theory & ear-training to help find the melodies in your head/ off your fave songs onto your instrument! This is a group course that does not involve sight-reading.
  2. Music Theory Graded Exams helps you prepare for popular/classic theory exams. This can be taken in group or alone (at mine, at yours or online). This course involves sight-reading.
