The One Minute Lessons Technique
The One Minute Lessons Technique
The One Minute Lessons Technique Course gives a music student important information they need to know about many of the aspects of playing an instrument that relate to technical skills. While you might think these One Minute Lessons just give you some technical exercises (which they do) the lesson is way more than that.
Nine Lessons in the One Minute Lessons Technique Course
There are nine sections to the One Minute Lessons Technique Course. Each lesson teaches you about a subject that is related to technique through a one minute video, plus PDFs to explain further and/or to give you exercises to help implement the idea presented. Below is a list of the ideas presented in the nine One Minute Lessons, and I hope you will see what makes them special.
Subjects of the Nine One Minute Lessons Technique
- Exercise to lighten touch on any instrument.
- Understanding how your physical interface with your instrument affects your speed and accuracy.
- Understanding Long Line Rhythm and how to use a four note melodic pattern found in a song in 96 ways.
- Understanding technique, and exercises to correct it when it is bad.
- How to practice, and scrutinize your habits to see if they are holding you back from your goals.
- A Discussion of Warm Ups and how they fit into your overall practice regimen.
- How hearing what you play affects your technique and your musical ability.
- How the style you want to play should affect your practicing.
- Guidelines on how a good melody is formed and discussion of the factors that make a melody sound musical.
Three One Minute Lesson Courses
There are three One Minute Lesson courses. One on Technique, Phrasing and Harmony in which you learn about things that are mostly not found in other courses in the Muse Eek Publishing catalog. As I have pointed out before, these are subjects that often come up in conversation during private lessons, and they help a student understand the bigger picture or discuss an important aspect of music that a student might not understand or is overlooking in their development.
