At the academy, we like to use a second word when describing theory - Language. At its core, theory is about teaching the student to be able to speak in music terms, understand music concepts, and apply them to their own playing.
Our group theory classes utilize old school classical theory concepts and adapts them to modern music education. We understand that the basics must be learnt before being able to break the rules, however we strongly encourage students to explore their theory knowledge with practical application and real world music. Not every song ends with a V-I cadence!
Here at the Hamilton Academy of music we work to unite traditional music education and practical exams with modern techniques and technology to enable students to become adaptable, creative and self sufficient artists. With the ever changing music industry, our goal is to modernize music education and keep music relevant and engaging while still focusing on the musical language and how it connects to all styles of music.
Students are taught at their own pace to understand the musical language which includes reading and writing sheet music, and understanding how scales and chords function and interact in traditional and modern styles of music.
Whether it's analyzing our favorite music, recording our own songs, or preparing for an exam or performance, we are working towards an understanding of the musical language and how it can be used for your specific needs.
Musical theory and history are important aspects for any performer or composer. We make learning musical theory a very fun experience through the use of our own materials in our Winnipeg music studio.
Through Our Experience The Best Way to Learn is Hands on One-on-One Instruction With a Qualified Instructor
Our Teachers Generally Make Theory A Part Of Beginner Lessons
From basic note reading to advanced rudiments and ear training, theory lessons can be added to your practical instrumental lesson by lengthening lesson time or taken as a separate lesson
Lessons on classical music theory are designed to help you understand and excel at the foundations and principles of the music language
