The Dolce Music Academy offers a tailor-made package for the individual. You may choose to follow a contemporary musical path or a classical graded approach. However, all beginners start with the outlined curriculum:
-
Piano: John Thompson’s Easiest Piano Course Part 1 - 4.
Thereafter students may choose their preferred musical genre. -
Recorder: Brian Davey Descant Recorder Part 1 – 3.
Thereafter students may choose their preferred musical genre. - Contemporary Singing: This is offered as an enrichment activity. Classical ideals and concepts will not be the primary focus. During these lessons, students will be taught the basics of singing, pronunciation, dynamics, range control and more.
- Theory Tuition: This is optional and is done during lesson time until the student reaches a grade 2 level. Once this level has been reached, it will be necessary for the student to attend a group theory class once a week.
All lessons are thirty minutes long. Longer lessons can also be arranged, provided the time is available.
All lessons are given at the teacher’s residence in the afternoons. A specific time will be assigned to each student.
