We're excited about this new modality for teaching and learning music. It's a way for learners of any level to get real personal feedback and assistance in their music study, at a lower price point, utilizing the best of current technology.
A traditional “music lesson” of 30 minutes allows teacher and student to cover roughly three topics. Ten minutes each. Media & Messages allows us to do the same work, but it allows both student and teacher to customize their workflow. It encourages thinking specifically about each music task. It avoids video meet issues of bandwidth, connectivity, device setup, and utilizes crystal clear media files. It allows student to make multiple 'takes' and send only what they are comfortable with.
If you are music-curious, if you have been studying on your own, if you have purchased someone's “Online Lessons” and are stuck & confused, if you are an intermediate or advanced player who wants some additional insight – Try This!

More are on the way! But the best one, the one you should begin with, the one that makes you a musician: is the Practice Book.
There is only ONE SINGLE THING which you must do to become a musician: Play Your Music.
This book provides for you the structure for doing that.
For writing rhythms only. Percussion clef is included - so it doesn't just look like a bunch of single lines. Which is what it is. And yes, you can just use notebook paper and draw a percussion clef, and write rhythms to your heart's content. It's that simple. That's the point. Rhythm learning is easy if you just focus on rhythm only.
Staff Paper: five lines, four spaces, as it has been for about 400 years. You can draw your own percussion clef, treble clef, bass clef (or several others, if you're specially learned!). If this thing scares you, then you haven't paid attention to what Songdog has been teaching.
This is one of the most handy kinds of music paper - because you can use either, or both, notation systems.
This is one of the most handy kinds of music paper - for ukulele - because you can use either, or both, notation systems.
