I began teaching for Pendragon's Music in 1990, and since had taught for 22 years at a couple of the local music stores. In 2010 I started to gradually open up days at my home studio where I had a much more spacious, clean, noise free environment to teach in with better equipment.  In 2012 I left the music stores all together and went full time at my home and at J5 Sound Studios in Bridgetown.

Greg C

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar

Generally speaking, I use a learner-centered approach, encourage astute questioning, a cooperative stimulation of critical thinking, and I prefer an active versus passive teaching style. Regardless of the student's age, I want him/her to have fun as much as possible, so I strive to make the unavoidable repetitive exercises more enjoyable by facilitating the student's creative input. I teach sight-reading and classical guitar using the Sagrares Method, and advise (particularly guitarists) on health and wellness methods developed by Dorothy Taubman. Read More

...Figaro role from Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro if you’re curious. Basso Buffo roles often provide more personality than lyricism in a given opera. Basso buffo singers need to demonstrate a beautiful and rich tone (despite the antics of their roles, bass buffo roles rarely call for any harshness of sound), and a degree of comfort regarding agility, coloratura, and patter singing techniques. Give Leporello’s role from Don Giovanni a listen to hear an example of buffo singing.     Basso Profundo vocalists sing in either a lyric or dramatic style. As you know by now, lyric profundo basses posses a smoother... Read More

...and choruses with new material, it’s time to add in a bridge. Bridges keep music interesting by presenting new musical and lyrical content in the middle of a song. This is a section that keeps a song interesting by adding new chord progressions and perhaps a thicker plot to the music. Not every song needs it, but a thoughtfully-placed bridge has the ability to refresh the listener’s palette. If you struggle to write songs that aren’t repetitive and boring, adding an interesting bridge to your music might be the trick to break up the verse/chorus monotony.   Endings   An ending is a ...

...to be as efficient as possible. There are several different ways to approach jazz and jazz education; there are many different schools of thought. Likewise, there are a lot of ways to approach playing in 12 keys. Everyone learns differently. As a teacher, I need to be aware of how my students approach learning different subjects so I can cater teaching music to their specific needs. As students of music, we should be aware of how we learn. Like many things in life, learning to play in 12 keys is a spectrum of two extremes that people fall to one side of.
