WHY DO THE SEMINAR?

Because you've always wanted to play an instrument or play even better!

Because you never understood what your piano teacher was talking about!

Because you deserve to enrich your life with music! 


WHAT YOU'LL KNOW AFTER ONE WEEKEND:

All of the note names on the keyboard and guitar from memory and how to work out the note names on other types of Western musical instruments.

•How to play all the scales and modes (a special type of scale) on both the keyboard and guitar. Dozens of scales are easily memorized during the seminar.

How to play every chord on both keyboard and guitar. Dozens of chords are easily memorized during the seminar.

•How simply the physics of sound and the history of music can be explained.

•New breakthrough easy exercises to teach you to coordinate hands and fingers.

•How to start reading music for keyboard and guitar in minutes not hours (even professional musicians are amazed by this revolutionary new system).

•How to do a simple 10 minute daily practice schedule that really works.

•How to read chord books and chord charts so that you can begin to learn how to accompany yourself on a keyboard or guitar while singing songs.

You will be reading and playing music by Bach, hands together on the keyboard by the end of the Seminar.

No claim is made that graduates are playing like Elton John or Eric Clapton in only one weekend but beginners understand how to read and play music by the end of the weekend and professional musicians reach new creative heights.




How can all this happen in one weekend? 

By using an advanced system of easy steps developed by Duncan Lorien that ensures everyone in the Seminar fully understands and is able to apply each step before the next step is started. All the Seminar information is included in an easy to read manual with simple diagrams. The attendee interacts with the manual throughout the Seminar and continues at home with the daily practice schedule. The Seminar manual is included in the cost of the Seminar.

What is the graduation rate? 

 100 %. This graduation rate explains the huge expansion of this "grass-roots" movement around the world as graduates tell family, friends and collegues about their success from doing the Seminar.


What instruments are required?

Duncan Lorien recommends the keyboard as the fastest instrument to learn music on and if you have your own portable keyboard please bring it with you as this helps to ensure everyone has access to a keyboard. You are welcome to bring an acoustic guitar as the Seminar information is immediately applied to guitar as well. Although the information is fully applicable to other instruments such as brass, woodwind, percussion or voice only keyboards or acoustic guitars should be brought to the Seminar
