A TURNING POINT IN YOUR MUSICAL JOURNEY

Dear Music Lover.

I don't know how long you've been following my work in piano education, The main reason why I do what I do, is I have a very simple mission. I want you to become free at the piano. Most people when they sit down at a piano are just so tense. Scared of making mistakes, anxious they are missing some theory. BUT I want you to groove with the music, I want to see you break down those barriers between you and the instrument, and thanks to the years of research and teaching with my students at the London Contemporary School of Piano, I would like to provide you with all of the ingredients you need to make beautiful music at the piano, on your own terms, in your own way, free from tension, free from fear of embarrassment, messing up. I want us to go on a different type of musical journey where you can open up to the piano in a different way, and for the first time, feel like a real artist when you sit down and play. This is what I want to see us achieve, and it's my commitment and guarantee to you that we reach this pinnacle together.

If I can't achieve that for you over this course, I make one guarantee at the very least, that you will learn so much more about the piano, chords, scales, grooves, classical music, blues, jazz, and other keyboard forms of music than you have learned in at least the last 10 years of your musical life.

Please take the time to learn more about this course by reading the enrolment details below.

Best wishes,

Tom Donald

Classical Piano Essentials

Classical Piano need not be an enigmatic and elusive art, and you don't need to devote endless hours to master its beauty. One primary reason students abandon classical music is the disconnect between traditional teaching methods and the original source. Drawing on examples from the genius of Bach, the elegance of Chopin, and the passion of Rachmaninov, I will guide you in deconstructing any classical piece, no matter its complexity, so you can comprehend, learn, and practice with greater efficiency and profound results.

Embrace the opportunity to immerse yourself in one of the classical masterpieces on our syllabus, whether it's a mesmerizing Prelude by Bach or Rachmaninov or a graceful Waltz by Chopin. Alternatively, unleash your creativity and improvise on these exquisite compositions, just as Chopin often did. Holistic piano education should extend to classical music, for it is within this realm that its impact becomes truly extraordinary.
