About the course

What you'll learn

During each two day course, we’ll give you a comprehensive overview of music theory and its key components using increasingly complex recognisable music tracks as a reference to the concepts taught.

HOW WE TEACH

With support and guidance, we’ll empower you to rethink how you act and react to certain situations or problems. This approach, when aligned to a musical context, results in speeding up your learning and gives you a more profound awareness of your own musicality. Come to the course with an open and curious mind and it will give you a distinct advantage for getting the most out of it. This mindset will also be beneficial to your creativity in general.
