| Music Technology |
Computers are becoming more and more a part of our everyday, and are used in many areas of todays music - from composing elements to the performing process; the recording of music to the editing and production of music. Computer-aided-composition seems to be paving the way for a new century of music, and whether it's the next No.1 hit single, soundscapes, film music, sound effects or contemporary performance/dance music you're interested in, discovering the possibilities could have you glued to your Apple Macs for unsociably long hours!
Visit Sonic Hybrid for an insight into alien soundscapes (realised on a Mac!) and free mp3s/real audio tracks.

One-to-One tuition is offered to cater to the individual's needs and interests. Options involve and include The Basics of Music Technology; Sound Creation/Composition; Engineering, Recording, Editing and Production areas; Music to Film/Video/Dance etc, and History. Group Tuition and Day-Courses are available with varied course structures. Options include: Creating your own CD; Using Technology in Performances; Basics of Music Technology; Sound for Web/Multimedia etc...

"At least Learn the Rules before you Break Them"


All Instrumental tuition will, and has to, involve the Theory of Music to some extent.
Theory of Music tuition is available in group or individual classes, private tuition or online/remote learning, and covers all levels, following the ABRSM exams (exams may or may not be undertaken, as individually required).

| History of Music |

History of Music is as important as it is interesting and I would suggest that even those who have little desire to become an instrumentalist or composer take a wander through the ages.
'GCSE' Level and 'A' Level students requiring help or extra tuition in Music Theory and Music History are welcome.

Get more involved with your instrument - look into the history of your particular instrument - find out how your instrument came about, who was the first composer to write something for it? how has it evolved over the years? why has it evolved? how does it work?!

| Remote Learning |

Tuition wherever you're based! Want to learn Music but not local? Remote Learning means student location isn't a problem. Once registered, a student will have access to the online course, where they will be able to complete online projects and tests (which are then returned to be marked) and recieve course material and tasks. Weekly online lessons provide further tuition and support via a private chatroom.

Remote Learning Theory - Examinations can not currently be taken online, but the course syllabus works toward standard ABRSM requirements and exams prepared for - students may undertake an exam at a center local to them.

If you do not have regular access to the internet but would be interested in Remote Learning tuition, a paper version is available - the fees are increased slightly to cover postage/material - please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any queries or would like more information.
