Two courses, ten lessons each
Foundations of Reading Music
Learn to read music as a singer, from zero, with the stave shown side by side with the keyboard and the words you sing underneath, so you learn how they work together. You'll cover the stave and clefs (treble and bass), letter names, Middle C, finding your range and knowing your voice part, crotchets to quavers, rests and ties, accidentals, major scales with sol-fa, triads and harmony — with full theory and musical terms — reaching an intermediate standard.
Includes play-along & sing-along backing tracks in every course, with tempo & key control, a live score and record-yourself feedback from Jason.

Includes play-along & sing-along backing tracks in every course, with tempo & key control, a live score and record-yourself feedback from Jason.
