Trusted teacher: This is a hands-on surgical exploration into what great songs are and how to create them - from lyrics to music. Great songs are not merely popular songs, or catchy songs, or best-selling songs - great songs are enduring creations that stand the test of time, and which cross all boundaries of genre and style. In order to create them, we need a unique combination of skills and sensitivities - the ability to execute our ideas effectively on an accompaniment instrument of our choice, whether piano, guitar, organ, harp or other almost always polyphonic (multiple sounding) instruments - but equally the ability to craft poetic and compelling lyrics that are neither cliche nor predictable, and not least, the ability to create effective rhyme patterns without compromising either the original intent or flow of the song. In truth, creating a great song is as or more difficult than creating a great story, because it requires the meeting and melding of word and music in a mutually resonant way. In this quest, the class will enlighten beginning as well as seasoned songwriters on harmonic vocabularies available to them, basic musical resources such as rhythmic figures and variation techniques, basic and advanced song structures, from Bach to the Beatles to Bernstein, and perfecting the art of lyric-writing. Students will learn both fundamental notations so they may present their songs in a true musical format, as well as short cuts enabling them to sketch ideas in a simple form when in the heat of creation. Vocal ranges, transposing, vocal and instrumental ranges will be addressed so that students create songs capable of being sung by either professionals or amateurs.

Trusted teacher: I am specialised in preparing students for the various academic qualifications in vocal performance (recital) offered by the London College of Music Examinations (LCME) of the University of West London. The diplomas cover a range of first-years undergraduate to master level qualifications, all fully accredited in the UK and carrying transferable academic credits for use at other (international) universities. Exams consist of a performance element, counting for 80%, and a short demonstration of theoretical knowledge (discussion, sight reading or programme notes, depending on the diploma). The diplomas are: - The Diploma of the London College of Music (DipLCM) in vocal performance recital is of an equivalent standard to a 1st year undergraduate module (RQF Level 4, EQF Level 5) and the performance element is examined through a 25-30 minutes performance. The diploma is worth 90 CATS (British equivalent of 45 ECTS) academic credits. - The Associate of the London College of Music (ALCM) in vocal performance recital is of an equivalent standard to a 2nd year undergraduate module (RQF and EQF Level 5) and the performance element is examined through a 35-40 minutes performance. The diploma is worth 120 CATS (British equivalent of 60 ECTS) academic credits. - The Licentiate of the London College of Music (LLCM) in vocal performance recital is of an equivalent standard to a final year undergraduate module (RQF and EQF Level 6) and the performance element is examined through a 45-50 minutes performance. The diploma is worth 180 CATS (British equivalent of 90 ECTS) academic credits. - The Fellow of the London College of Music (FLCM) in vocal performance is of an equivalent standard to a Masters module (RQF and EQF Level 7) and the performance element is examined through a 50-60 minutes performance. The diploma is worth 225 CATS (British equivalent of 112.5 ECTS) academic credits. In all cases, candidates are required to achieve 75% to attain the diploma qualification. Exam preparation will consist of approximately 30 hours of private online tuition by me, depending on your current level. The tuition fee, including preparation and exam entry, is €20 per diploma CATS credit. Do note that entry requirements may apply, so feel free to contact me for advice on this. In the UK, LCM's diploma examinations are regulated by Ofqual, Qualifications Wales and CCEA at Levels 4 to 7 of the Regulated Qualifications Framework. The diplomas are also included in the European Qualifications Framework (EQF). Additionally, LCM diplomas in music are mapped against the BMus and MMus Performance / Composition degree courses at University of West London, which are validated by the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA). BMus and MMus students who hold an LCM diploma are automatically eligible to bypass the relevant module or modules on the degree course. Other degree-awarding institutions (including those outside the UK) may, on a discretionary basis, accept LCM diplomas as Approved Prior Learning (APL) on a similar basis. This may assist in your admittance to degree studies at a conservatory or university and possibly provide dispensation for certain modules in your further studies. Even if you are not interested in obtaining an academic qualification, feel free to approach me for private online singing and/or songwriting lessons. The hourly fee for this is published elsewhere on this page.

Jazz Piano and Jazz Improvisation Lesson in English in Tokyo Area (Tokyo)
Yoichi
Yoichi is an amazing pianist. As someone with no experience playing Jazz, I found the first lesson very helpful. He brought lead sheets and explained how Jazz music is performed, walked me through some chord structures and gave me some structure for developing a practice routine. He was also very accommodating about our meeting location. I'm looking forward to future lessons with him.
