Music Lessons with Specialties from Conservatory “Giuseppe Verdi” for All Levels

Student and Tutor reviewed major triads across all 12 keys, focusing on their visual shapes and proper sustain pedal technique for seamless chord transitions. They then began working on a new classical piece, practicing decoding notes, understanding time signatures and rhythms, and coordinating both hands with specific articulations like staccato. The Student's homework is to practice the first eight bars of the new piece, focusing on both hands and rhythmic accuracy.

The Student and Tutor conducted a piano lesson, focusing on practicing Bach's Musette. They worked on specific challenging bars of the piece, concentrating on improving fingering, rhythmic accuracy, and hand coordination. The Tutor recommended that the Student focus on practicing a particularly complex bar during the upcoming week.

Student and Tutor worked on a guitar piece by Bach, focusing on reading challenging passages, visualizing chord shapes (B7, E minor, A minor), and understanding harmonic progressions including F# half diminished. They practiced arpeggios in different positions and developed exercises to connect these chords harmonically on the fretboard. The student was assigned to continue practicing the Bach piece and apply chord visualization techniques.

The Student and Tutor continued practicing a piano piece, focusing on improving rhythmic accuracy and technical execution. They worked on vocalizing rhythms, subdividing beats, and then applying these rhythms to finger exercises on the keyboard, addressing challenging sections with both hands. The session concluded with an introduction to sight-reading new bars of the piece.

The Student and Tutor explored melodic concepts using Bach's Lute Suite BWV 996, practicing a specific melodic fragment across the guitar fretboard and applying it to different harmonic contexts, including 2-5-1 progressions.

As homework, the Student was assigned to read the first page of the Bach PDF and memorize the chord structure of the jazz standard.

The Student and Tutor began working on a new piano piece, starting with an analysis of its D major key signature and note identification across clefs. They practiced the first eight bars, focusing on rhythmic accuracy, staccato articulation, and hand coordination. The Student is encouraged to practice the piece, particularly the coordination challenges, before the next session.
