  • Description:

    This course is new in that it combines the previous courses of Reading music from the beginning and Music Theory for beginners. Together we journey through and investigate the beginnings of written music, gradually building up skill sets and studying elements that constitute music, all from the comfort of your own home. The early part of the course is designed to be useful to those wishing to have a better understanding of the signs and squiggles on a page of music. We arrive at the equivalent of an ABRSM (Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music) Grade 2 standard by the end of the course. PDF booklets that complement each topic will be sent out when appropriate. This will be taught over Zoom using my own license.
