KEYBOARD
Piano
Keyboard
Piano Course
The piano allows for full keyboard expression through the action of the piano keys, sustain pedal and wide range of the instrument.
Students have the option to learn the traditional way or with a more contemporary approach. Even mix the two methods.
Whatever one's preference the essential skills required for reaching a good performance standard are taught as an integral part of the process. These include: Scales, arpeggios, sight reading and aural. Basic music theory is included but the option to study this further exists.
In addition our unique set of options allows for students, if they prefer, to quickly join an ensemble and enjoy playing with others.
Keyboard Course
The keyboard presents various opportunities for learning
how to master the keys. A traditional 'piano style' approach is possible of course - with few limitations.
Alternatively there is the option to concentrate on the melody and allow the instrument to generate an interesting accompaniment by the student forming simple chords with the left hand. This method produces a quicker 'result' - albeit less imaginatively or skilfully,
Many different instrumental sounds are to be found within the 'voice' facility of most keyboards. It's a great way to learn how to recognise instruments. In addition a variety of rhythms across a range of styles are available. Many keyboards allow the performer to record their performance. Most will save it when switched off but the very cheap ones don't usually.
The keyboard's versatility is ideal if you should consider progressing with the ensemble group.
