Sometimes you’re looking for ways to improve musically that aren’t necessarily specific to an instrument. A number of the subjects listed below are traditionally only learned in class format or through a college but not as private lessons. At Madison Music Foundry we place a high value on the one-on-one time provided in private lessons, and we feel that individual study is an effective way to learn areas of music that are not necessarily specific to an instrument. Lesson subjects are listed below.

Specialty lessons can be on a limited basis or ongoing. Students can also have a trial lesson in order to help determine an appropriate lesson plan.

MUSICIANSHIP
–Music Theory (includes ear training and sight-singing)
–Songwriting
–Harmonizing

MUSICAL THEATER & OPERA

–Audition Prep

MUSIC BUSINESS

–Website development

TECHNICAL**
–Recording software
–Manuscript software (i.e. Finale, Sibelius, MuseScore)
–Beat making software
–Gear (i.e. pedals, processors)

**To get the most of technical lessons, the instructor may suggest you own the software or gear used in lessons, though you may also use lessons to help better understand what equipment is best for you.
