Musicianship through games- ear training - music theory applied
|
|
Age 6-8, 9-12, 13-18 or for adults
This one hour group class is designed to translate music theory into practice. All through fun games! It supplements your piano or any other instrument 's private lessons. In a private lesson, a teacher barely has time to cover everything, so theory is often left to written exercises or classes covering vocabulary. For example, name a note, a chord, a time signatures, or write a missing rest, a beat number. Those exercises are intellectual. It takes a different type of practice to transfer knowledge into playing an instrument and REALLY learn. Here, students recognize, play, feel, hear the notes, chords, and rhythm.
Through fun games, students learn Music Theory, Ear training, embodied rhythm through movements, sight reading, memorizing and singing solfege. For the more advanced, they may learn how to write a tune from the radio or how to recognize chords in pop songs.
WHEN: 9-12 year old or 13-18: Sundays 1:00-2:00 pm (once every 2 weeks)
6-8 year old: Saturday afternoon, time TBD
Adults: time T.B.D.

Music and the Brain
Age 14-80
Dr Bang Lang Do has presented posters, gave lectures and published articles on how Cognitive Science and knowing more about how our brain works will help us learn more efficiently and memorize faster. These findings can be applied to many types of learning, not just music.
This class is 50 minutes, in a lecture format, with Q & A period at the end of each lecture, and an exercise and reflection period where students will try to apply the particular research findings to their own learning in one particular medium (sport/art/music/academic subject). A short term goal will be set individually by each student and practiced during the following week. Each week will cover a different topic on the brain and reading homework will be assigned.
