WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO....
Dream Machine Piano was established in 2006 to become a
customized Music Training Company that taught piano lessons within
a full comprehensive program for children of all ages - even adults
and seniors.
We provide your child with a comprehensive music program that
integrates;keyboard, ear training, sight reading, rhythm, music theory
and music composition.
I possess more than 18 years education and curriculum development
experience and stringent teacher accreditation for superior parent
satisfaction.
MUSIC THEORY
The importance of music theory is often overlooked - possibly because
it is difficult to teach in a way that keeps the student interested. We
meet this challenge head-on. Although theory is applied within the
lessons, advanced students may wish to study music theory in the
general sense, whether to gain acceptance in a post-secondary
program, or simply to develop a greater understanding of music and
musicianship.
EAR TRAINING
How is it that a musician can hear a string of notes or chords and play
them back without seeing music? This is the result of ear training.
Although perfect pitch (the ability to produce or identify any given
note by ear) is something one is born with, the rest of us can be
taught RELATIVE-pitch. Relative pitch means that, when one note is
provided, the musician can produce or identify any other notes
relative to the given note. So what's the point of all this? A musician
whose ears are well trained has a much easier time hearing,
identifying with, and anticipating music that is being played.
The most spectacular example of a musician possessing the gift of
perfect pitch is in the case of Mozart who, while still a child, attended
a chamber music concert with his father. That evening, the boy wrote
out the entire musical score on paper. It was so perfect that he was
accused of stealing the music until he was given a chance to
demonstrate that he could indeed hear any notes on any instrument
and transcribe them to paper, or play them back.
