I will make you proficient in music harmony


About this gig
If you are looking for an affordable crash course in music harmony, or just music in general, look no further, and leave me a message!
- Do you know why some notes or chords go along with each other but not others?
- Do you ever feel that many mainstream songs sound very similar, but just can't seem to describe why?
- Do you ever feel compelled to write a banger of a song, but don't know what to look out for?
Despite its importance, harmony is so technically demanding that many people often shy away from mastering it. If you are one of these people, allow me to step in, as I will:
- Distill everything I know about it and deliver you the resulting "knowledge nuggets".
- Discuss and conduct case studies to provide you an application-based learning experience.
Or, if you need assistance with any topic (up to 3), including those unrelated to harmony, be it for casual learning or for actual applications in music,
- Order "à la carte" and specify the topics you want me to cover.

FAQ
Hmm... is this gig for me?
If you have at least a basic mastery of a pitched instrument and sight reading on stave notation, interested in writing your own music, or just hungry for musical knowledge (especially on harmony), then this gig is for you. However, if you don't read music at all, I'm afraid it might be a bit hard.
How will the lessons be conducted?
Conducted via Zoom/Skype, the lessons (90 min per session) involve me presenting and explaining prepared materials. For the most part, I'll illustrate my points using a notation software, and conduct case studies to provide a comprehensive and immersive learning experience.
What materials will be given?
Notes and exercise sheets will be provided and used in tandem with the lessons.
Can I ask targetted/specific questions and get you to answer them?
Yes, you can! This is exactly what the "à la carte" package does - choose up to 3 topics (anything related to music) that you need clarifications on, and I'll prepare the lessons and materials accordingly.
Do I need to prepare anything before hand?
Yes! Definitely get a notation software (e.g. MuseScore) installed on your device prior to the lessons, as you'll need it for a "hands-on" experience. Additionally, a pitched (preferably polyphonic) instrument may be helpful for the learning process, but not compulsory.
I'm interested! What do I do?
You are just two steps away! Step 1: Ask yourself if you have anything you want to learn in particular, or if you want to get yourself started with harmony right away. Step 2: Pick the package based on step 1, place the order! If you are still uncertain, my inbox welcomes you and your questions!
