The Website for my Students
This website is made for my Piano and Classical Guitar students. It comprises a lot of technical resources and help to make you a better musical performer. Theory support and practical drills will help you to learn faster and sharpen your skills. Moreover, the site also has some video highlights from our past recitals and photos albums by years. Please visit the site frequently and use all the tools to learn faster and have some more musical fun.
My students will be the main actors and contributors of this site. I plan to shoot several movies and do extensive professional sound recordings. Each contribution will also result in a learning experience and motivational push since being an actor or actress in a movie needs some performance perfection. We also will LIVE broadcast our recitals. For that purpose some of my students will be educated and act as camera operator, video switcher, audio mixer and web-presenter.
This project is far from being complete and probably will never be - since it will be constantly updated. I’m looking forward to assisting my students in their learning process but even more important, to have more fun when playing the piano or guitar by sharing their playing with others.
