Step 1: Create your account on Skype First, download Skype onto your computer, smartphone, and/or tablet. You'll be prompted to create an account by adding a username and password. Students in the same family can use the same account. We always say there's no substitute for getting out there and seeing live music. If you want to learn the language you have to experience it! Here's our list of recommended events this month and next.
As the 2019-2020 school year ramps up, we know getting back into the groove when it comes to school and extracurriculars can be tough. So, to help make the transition a little easier, we've put together a guide to making the most of your music lessons.
A new family signed up their teenage son for lessons with me. He’s had a classical background full of of exams and evaluations. He practices an hour a day and spends twenty minutes on scales. His parents warned me that he wants to quit. At our first lesson, he plays a Bach piece. The notes are right but uninspired. I ask him what he listens to. Pop. So we learn “All of Me” by John Legend. An hour later he's playing it and sounds great. He's having a good time. The parents are totally confused. To them Bach is greater than John Legend. I ask the parents what they listen to – John Legend.
