WHY
MUSIC THEORY?
To
become a holistic musician you must adopt the following:
- a high level
of technical achievement
- performance -
it is what musicians live for!
- a deep understanding
of musicianship
Music
Theory is the underlying knowledge of being a musician and
the backbone behind each great masterpiece. Musicianship is
the
study of
music notation, harmony, analysis, history, composition and
the training of aural skills.
MUSIC
THEORY
AT ORC
ORC
now has a structured and comprehensive graded course. Under
most circumstances, students commence in the beginner classes
and progress at a grade-per-year rate. Students who come into
the program with existing experience will be assessed before
being placed in an appropriately graded class.
The
ORC musicianship course uses the AMEB Music Craft syllabus.
All students will be entered by ORC for external AMEB examinations,
as a part of the course.
Tuition
is available in the form of one-to-one, shared classes (maximum
of three people) and group classes. The students who have undergone
musicianship training do and feel better in their music studies,
examinations and performances. At ORC, our music
theory
staff are highly qualified and creative and will ensure
that each lesson is interesting and fulfilling.
