I can break down any popular song, musical theme or symphony and describe and explain the harmonic, rhythmic, and melodic content and their relationship to the composition and their relationships to each other. I have written and composed many hours of music for films, television, radio and advertisements and then arranged the parts for the various instruments and directed (conducted) the musicians as they performed it in the recording studio. I have worked in Nashville in the recording studio every day for 15 years writing charts and transposing music to various keys, arranging and writing harmony parts for vocals, strings, horns, and rhythm section. I have played and taught guitar, piano, bass, and drums for 35 years, and I read music on all those instruments. PianoI have played piano professionally in the recording studio and at live performances for 30 + years - styles.jazz, rock, country, folk, blues, others. I enjoy working with musically gifted students - singers, songwriters, musicians - rock, jazz, blues & country music. I have a recording studio and I have written several non-fiction books. Now I am semi-retired living in Arlington Texas (where I grew up). While in Nashville I owned & operated a recording studio that recorded songs for many famous and successful songwriters and artists, as well as major publishers and labels such as RCA, Capital, Warner Bros, Sony, Polygram, Universal, Mercury, Arista, Atlantic, Disney, Dreamworks, etc. I have also written and published and produced other songs that have been played on television and radio through the years.

We donвЂ™t encourage our students to begin composing two weeks after they have bought their first instrument.I have had a career as a songwriter and a musician for 32 years. It is the study of harmony that eventually leads to composition, and unlike many schools, colleges, universities and other teaching institutions, we put the cart after the horse, not before it! We teach the rudiments first, followed by harmony and then composition. Harmony, when taught properly, teaches the student to understand the relationship between melody and chords and to appreciate both syntax and vocabulary. We believe that the study of the theory, which leads to the study of harmony, is both relevant and essential to all styles of music and should be part of every studentsвЂ™ education. ItвЂ™s one thing to play a piece of music, itвЂ™s quite another thing to understand it. Although it is not an easy subject to master, it is essential if a student wants to understand what they are playing. Harmony is the study of how chords and melody work together. After grade three, theory becomes more involved, with the introduction of the study of harmony. The first three grades of our music theory lessons in Melbourne cover the fundamentals of music and are mandatory in enabling students to learn to read music. We cater for all levels of music theory, from the rudiments to advanced harmony and we have written our own comprehensive course, including text-books and examination papers.
