Music Theory with Joshua M.

Joshua M. earned degrees from the Oberlin Conservatory of music and Jordan College of Fine Arts. He composes and performs with several chamber music groups in New York City. Bass lessons always begin with 5 minutes of scales, arpeggios or etudes to warm up. We will sometimes take a few minutes to analyze the music we perform, as that helps us understand how to perform it. For beginners the focus is on technique, for more advanced students we tend to focus on how making good creative performance choices. *** Lesson Details *** Every lesson is different this is just one sample: 10 minutes: warm-up, scales or other technical exercises 5 minutes: analyze music to perform, work on music theory and history. 30 minutes: work on music *** Studio Equipment *** Computer, microphones, Sibelius 7.0, etc *** Travel Equipment *** I provide sheet music.
