Ages 6 to 96

Heading set at 6/1: two octaves and a fifth

We teach at a tempo you can actually play.

One teacher, one chair, forty five minutes a week. The hairline along the bottom of the header counts a real 72 beats per minute, which is about the speed a first scale should be practised at. If it distracts you, rest the pulse and the page goes quiet.

Your first four weeks, counted in

3/1: octave and a fifth

  1. Bar one

    The trial lesson

    You play nothing you have not been shown. The teacher listens, asks what you want to be able to do, and writes down where to start.

  2. Bar two

    The instrument

    Borrow one from the cupboard or bring your own. We check the setup before you spend anything on a new one.

  3. Bar three

    The practice plan

    Fifteen honest minutes beats an hour on Sunday night. The plan is written on one card and lives on the music stand.

  4. Bar four

    Playing with someone else

    A duet with the teacher, then with another student. Nobody waits a year to make music with another person.

Look at the week again

3/1: octave and a fifth

Start on a downbeat, not a New Year.

Chairs open the week they open. Take a trial lesson, keep it if it fits, stop if it does not.
