Goat Music, Teaching

Teaching

Create and express your musical ideas. Goat Music's comprehensive approach helps develop creative, instrumental and music industry skills through studies in songwriting, composition, improvisation, arranging, theory, ear training, guitar and music career counseling in both popular and classical genres. We offer private instruction, workshops for school settings and pre-production packages for self-contained units.

workshops

Creative workshops in songwriting, composition, improvisation, arranging and theory begin with an interview to ascertain participants' abilities and the educational objectives of the workshop. This information is analyzed and a course of action recommended. Workshops are then scheduled and implemented with support material provided. A question and answer period concludes each session. The sessions are documented and a report is provided.
