Simply Music
Simply Music is an Australian based piano and keyboard method that offers a breakthrough in music education. This unique method has students of all ages playing exceptional-sounding contemporary, classical, blues, gospel, jazz and accompaniment pieces – immediately – from their very first lessons!
From the Simply Music website:
Simply Music has students learn piano in a way that is profoundly different from traditional, 'reading-based' music lessons. Our music educators offer everything from beginner piano and keyboard lessons, through to teaching composition, improvisation, arrangement, accompaniment, blues, jazz, reading music, writing music, transposing music etc., and all of this done through the lens of Simply Music's unique, 'playing-based' perspective.
Having piano lessons with a Simply Music teacher means experiencing the pleasure and satisfaction that comes from immediately playing a vast repertoire of great-sounding music.
Our aim is for students to:
• Experience their musicianship as a natural self-expression;
• Play a vast repertoire covering a broad array of musical styles and genres;
• Develop the ability to self-generate. i.e. the ability to progress independently. This includes developing a foundation of music reading, writing, composition, improvisation, arrangement, structure and theory etc.
• Have a highly positive, self-affirming experience in their piano lessons and throughout their musical life.
