“Everyone can read and write literature, but not everyone can read and write music. We make writing a song as easy as writing a paragraph.”

Christmas Gift

Students grasp the true purpose of scales while enjoying some of their favorite Christmas songs.

Students begin by playing any scale while saying the solfege. Why solfege? Because solfege turns the ear on to the personality of each note within a scale. (All scales are included for review.) A chord warm up is given as a powerful exercise that locks you into the key. Students are then able to play the song in any key like a true musician – listening, feeling, and knowing what they’re doing – not just guessing what the black dots are on a page!

Students in Keyboard Foundations, Book 2 will be able to play the Roman numeral chords in the left hand.

By thinking in a key, students simultaneously improve sight-reading and ear training skills.

Learn the simplicity of transposing and playing in any key.

Meet Shane

I grew up hearing my mother play famous piano classics by the greats such as Chopin, Liszt, Beethoven, Brahms and Tchaikovsky. Her influence instilled a strong love of great music within me. She also taught me basic reading skills as a child. And this began my lifelong journey into the world of music.

Growing up I took traditional piano lessons. I practiced my assigned classical pieces for a couple hours every day. My course of study left me wanting more. I wanted to be one of those guys that could play anything! I wanted to be able to improvise and compose, not just play massive memorized pieces. After completing my college degree in piano performance, I felt no closer to my desired goals.

After graduation, I began teaching as a career. I saw things in the traditional approach that didn’t seem to yield good results. I prayed about this and asked God, “How should it be?”

 I began studying everything I could find on composing. As I experimented with it, I was amazed at the fun things I could play! I started showing my students and they absolutely loved it. Soon my studio had over 70 students and I didn’t have time to teach everyone that wanted what I had to give and I could see the need to develop a teaching method that would give students a step by step approach to learning composing  using their chords and scales. What thrilled me even more was when students could learn a difficult classical piece in half the amount of time because they were reading chords within the music instead of one note at a time. Students of music unveiled learn to think like the composer was thinking when they wrote the piece. I am so excited to share with you the amazing truths that God has shown me! 

Music made simple.
