Music Theory Lessons Our Music Theory Class is designed to give students a deep understanding of how music works, enhancing their ability to read, write, and perform music with confidence. Whether you're a beginner or more advanced musician, music theory is the key to unlocking a richer and more enjoyable musical experience.

What You’ll Learn:
· Reading and Writing Music: Learn the basics of music notation, including note values, time signatures, key signatures, and how to read and write music fluently.
· Scales, Intervals, and Chords: Understand how music is built from the ground up, starting with scales and intervals, and progressing to the construction of chords and harmony. This knowledge is fundamental for both playing and composing music.
· Harmony and Counterpoint: Explore how different musical parts interact with each other. Learn about harmony, chord progressions, and the relationship between melody and accompaniment, giving you a deeper understanding of the music you play and hear.
· Rhythm and Meter: Gain a strong grasp of rhythm, timing, and meter, essential for both ensemble playing and solo performance. You’ll learn to recognize, count, and perform rhythmic patterns with accuracy.
· Ear Training and Sight Reading: Develop your listening skills to identify intervals, chords, and rhythms by ear. This helps sharpen your ability to play music by ear, sight-read new pieces, and improve your overall musicianship.
· Musical Form and Structure: Learn how to analyze the structure of musical compositions, understanding the different forms (such as sonata form, ternary form, etc.), and how these forms shape the music you perform and compose.

Music Theory Lessons Thank you for the opportunity to assist you with your music education. I feel that my skills would be of benefit to you, as I have highly developed skills in the areas of Music History/Theory/Composition/Drums/Percussion, band/Ensemble direction. I am also quite skilled and experienced in the area of curriculum development and departmental management. I am primarily interested in Music Theory/History and analysis, instrumental music and ensemble work, and have extensive experience in all these areas. I have experience running Music classroom, both small ensembles as well as large orchestras and Big Bands. I have worked in a number of well respected schools, both private and departmental, and have been successful within the departments I have worked. Apart from teaching experience, I am also a working musician working with bands in the Rock, Jazz and funk genre, as well as having working in studios producing music recordings. I studied at Swinburn, in the Audio Engineering course, however, due to overcommitment I was unable to complete the course.

During my professional, performing career, I have had the opportunity to work with a large range of diverse bands and ensembles, with styles ranging from Rock, Jazz, Latin, Swing and Progressive/Alternative. I have also had the opportunity to work with ensembles that required me to read and produce charts. I am quite adept at chart reading and composing.

Throughout my entire teaching career, I have been able to incorporate a vast array of technology, MIDI and compositional computer software. I have also had the opportunity to incorporate Technology into live ensemble performances.
As a teacher and head of a music department, I have had the opportunity to develop skills in curriculum development, reporting, progress tracking and skills to assist my students in passing all assessments, both theoretical and practical.
