  • Theory

Piano / keyboard / voice training

  • Lessons are on an individual basis
  • The lessons are against the background of the classical teaching method, adjusting according to the style the student prefers.
  • Most of our students take lessons for their own enjoyment, but can be enrolled for exams at UNISA, Trinity College or Royal Schools, should they so wish.
  • Quarterly group classes for the different age groups are held, introducing the students to experience playing for an audience (thus developing self confidence)

Guitar lessons

  • Lessons are either on a one on one basis or in small groups (maximum 4 students)
  • Our students are introduced to reading music (very important), playing chords and the various styles of playing.
  • Quarterly group classes for the different age groups are held, to train students in playing along with other musiciansĀ building self confidence.

Theory is an integral part of the lessons

A concert is held during the year to showcase the students' progress
