Music Theory provides a language for talking about music and an understanding of how it works. Studying theory helps to develop rhythm, ear training, reading, composition and many other skills. Without it; it is like being able to speak, without the ability to write.

Our theory lessons are not just applicable to the guitar, but all instruments and the skills developed are transferable no matter what instrument you play.

Our Junior and Leaving Certificate music grinds are based around the current school year curriculum.

Whether just a little help is need with course work, or preparation for exams, our lessons will help you develop the skills and confidence needed to take the stress out of  your exams.

Singing instruction for adults and teens is two-part, concentrating on both vocal technique and interpretation.

The technique portion works on breathing, range development, vocal strength, flexibility, intonation and tonal quality. The material chosen for interpretation work – which may include classical, jazz/blues, rock/pop, traditional music or musical theatre – is chosen with each student’s unique goals (and voice) in mind.

As it is not generally advisable to begin technical work before the age of 15, singing lessons for younger students concentrates on musicianship and interpretation skills only.
